Randomly getting error while generating word timestamps

[rahulmate]

code
`model = whisper_s2t.load_model(model_identifier="large-v2", asr_options={'word_timestamps': True},backend='TensorRT-LLM')

files = ['output.wav']
lang_codes = ['en']
tasks = ['transcribe']
initial_prompts = [None]

out = model.transcribe_with_vad(files,
lang_codes=lang_codes,
tasks=tasks,
initial_prompts=initial_prompts,
batch_size=16)`

For above code sometime it throws in below error for same file. Is there any explanation for it.

You can try adjusting the align_words method here to this:

for start_seq, req_idx in start_seq_wise_req.items():
    # adding adjusted_num_frames
    adjusted_num_frames = [min(frame, MAX_TEXT_TOKEN_LENGTH) for frame in seq_lens[req_idx].detach().cpu().numpy()]
    res = self.aligner_model.align(
        ctranslate2.StorageView.from_array(features[req_idx]),
        start_sequence=list(start_seq),
        text_tokens=[text_tokens[_] for _ in req_idx],
        num_frames=adjusted_num_frames,
        median_filter_width=7
    )

and adjusting data_collate_fn here to:

def data_collate_fn(self, batch):
    # adding max_seq_len_samples
    max_seq_len_samples = MAX_TEXT_TOKEN_LENGTH * (HOP_LENGTH * INPUT_STRIDE)
    if self.use_dynamic_time_axis:
        max_len = min(max([_[3] for _ in batch]) + self.dta_padding, N_SAMPLES, max_seq_len_samples)
    else:
        max_len = min(N_SAMPLES, max_seq_len_samples)

Let me know if that fixes anything @rahulmate

Thanks @aleksandr-smechov changes in align_words function solved the issue. I haven’t done benchmark yet but will run it to check the timestamps. For changes in data_collate_fn I was getting error with tensorRt model tensor

Could not set shape torch.Size([16, 80, 896]) for tensor x. Please check the profile range for which your model was build. Selection deleted
Currently only using changes in align_words because originally I was getting issue with align model itself.

For me, the above didn't solve anything. The issue I'm facing is that model (large-v3) is hallucinating and creating repetition of some phrases, which then increases length of chunk/tokens. Large-v2 didn't have this problem with this specific audio, but it did with some that were fine with large-v3. Overall, i would say that tensorrt-llm backend is showing more hallucinations than ctranslate2 is.

Hello,

I've encountered the following error while trying to make changes to align_words and data_collate_fn:

Could not set shape torch.Size([16, 80, 896]) for tensor x. Please check the profile range for which your model was built. Selection deleted.

I initially tried modifying align_words alone, but it did not resolve the issue. Even after altering both align_words and data_collate_fn, the error persists.

Steps Taken:

• Modified align_words.
• Modified data_collate_fn alongside align_words.

Despite these changes, the error regarding torch.Size remains consistent.

Could you please provide guidance on how to address this issue?

Thank you for your assistance!
