A 182M-parameter\nmultitask AED with a 17-layer FastConformer encoder and a 4-layer\nTransformer decoder. Supports automatic speech recognition in English,\nGerman, Spanish, and French, and bidirectional EN↔{DE, ES, FR}\ntranslation. Takes a\n16 kHz mono WAV and produces a transcript. Not a streaming model;\nword/segment timestamps are upstream-experimental and not exposed in\nthe v1 port.\n\n## Downloads\n\n| Quantization | Download | Size | WER (LibriSpeech test-clean) |\n| --- | --- | ---: | ---: |\n| F32 | [canary-180m-flash-F32.gguf](https://huggingface.co/handy-computer/canary-180m-flash-gguf/resolve/main/canary-180m-flash-F32.gguf) | 756 MB | 1.94% |\n| F16 | [canary-180m-flash-F16.gguf](https://huggingface.co/handy-computer/canary-180m-flash-gguf/resolve/main/canary-180m-flash-F16.gguf) | 382 MB | 1.94% |\n| Q8_0 | [canary-180m-flash-Q8_0.gguf](https://huggingface.co/handy-computer/canary-180m-flash-gguf/resolve/main/canary-180m-flash-Q8_0.gguf) | 218 MB | 1.93% |\n| Q6_K | [canary-180m-flash-Q6_K.gguf](https://huggingface.co/handy-computer/canary-180m-flash-gguf/resolve/main/canary-180m-flash-Q6_K.gguf) | 176 MB | 1.93% |\n| Q5_K_M | [canary-180m-flash-Q5_K_M.gguf](https://huggingface.co/handy-computer/canary-180m-flash-gguf/resolve/main/canary-180m-flash-Q5_K_M.gguf) | 159 MB | 1.90% |\n| Q4_K_M | [canary-180m-flash-Q4_K_M.gguf](https://huggingface.co/handy-computer/ca…\n\nSource: https://huggingface.co/handy-computer/canary-180m-flash-gguf","install":{"kind":"model","hfId":"handy-computer/canary-180m-flash-gguf","gated":false,"format":"gguf","files":[{"name":"canary-180m-flash-F16.gguf","size":381632192,"quant":"F16","sha256":"8042593b341836ac711a617cd483bb2ab7fe05eae14ace27b2488d8ce90ab017"},{"name":"canary-180m-flash-F32.gguf","size":756498112,"quant":"F32","sha256":"f42fce02dc5279545cd540f0e5d51e36b9335b69e11fd98de6e08cc1250fd7ad"},{"name":"canary-180m-flash-Q4_K_M.gguf","size":139223744,"quant":"Q4_K_M","sha256":"c8ae5758d7d4dc59c48d816474a33544e362ca52c635f96ee0b4b95e1b48f90c"},{"name":"canary-180m-flash-Q5_K_M.gguf","size":158704320,"quant":"Q5_K_M","sha256":"a87992d84aea5329fa5d70f2eb440d3ae4fe47bd774875374ec381472d348299"},{"name":"canary-180m-flash-Q6_K.gguf","size":176291520,"quant":"Q6_K","sha256":"be28948a5f6d93d59d0edc1f9580936ea30b23296130da02b719aee9f3a59e96"},{"name":"canary-180m-flash-Q8_0.gguf","size":218447552,"quant":"Q8_0","sha256":"e13c7f5d0952b056a027cfffec13e3a3a134d1608babed24f983568f141e297c"}],"totalBytes":1830797440,"suggestedFile":"canary-180m-flash-Q4_K_M.gguf","requirements":{"ramGb":1,"diskBytes":139223744,"note":"estimate: suggested file size × 1.15 + 0.5 GB; a real measurement comes with lsh models"},"runWith":["whisper.cpp"],"command":"lsh models install hf:handy-computer/canary-180m-flash-gguf"}}
