# Whisper MLX Model

This repository contains a CoreML and MLX-optimized Whisper model for efficient speech recognition on Apple devices.

## Model Components

- CoreML encoder for efficient inferencing on Apple Neural Engine
- MLX decoder for fast processing with Apple Silicon optimizations
- HuggingFace Whisper processor and model template

## Usage

```python
from asr_streaming import StreamingConfig, StreamingBackend

# Create config with HuggingFace repository
config = StreamingConfig(
    use_huggingface=True,
    huggingface_repo="TheStageAI/whisper-medium"
)

# Initialize the backend
backend = StreamingBackend(config)

# Now use the backend as normal
```
