Summary
An open-source framework (PyPI: africanwhisper) for fine-tuning OpenAI's Whisper on multilingual African-language audio datasets such as Common Voice and FLEURS, with optimized inference, diarization and deployment. Created by Kevin Kibe.
xTTS-v2-wolof is a text-to-speech model for Wolof built by GalsenAI by fine-tuning Coqui's xTTS v2 on the cleaned Anta Women Wolof TTS dataset. It synthesizes Wolof speech and can clone a voice from a reference clip as short as 6 seconds. It was developed by the GalsenAI community in Senegal.
