# Automatic Speech Recognition - Flax Examples
## Sequence to Sequence
The script [`run_flax_speech_recognition_seq2seq.py`](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/main/examples/flax/speech-recognition/run_flax_speech_recognition_seq2seq.py)
can be used to fine-tune any [Flax Speech Sequence-to-Sequence Model](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/en/model_doc/auto#transformers.FlaxAutoModelForSpeechSeq2Seq)
for automatic speech recognition on one of the [official speech recognition datasets](https://huggingface.co/datasets?task_ids=task_ids:automatic-speech-recognition)
or a custom dataset. This includes the Whisper model from OpenAI, or a warm-started Speech-Encoder-Decoder Model,
an example for which is included below.
### Whisper Model
We can load all components of the Whisper model directly from the pretrained checkpoint, including the pretrained model
weights, feature extractor and tokenizer. We simply have to specify the id of fine-tuning dataset and the necessary
training hyperparameters.
The following example shows how to fine-tune the [Whisper small](https://huggingface.co/openai/whisper-small) checkpoint
on the Hindi subset of the [Common Voice 13](https://huggingface.co/datasets/mozilla-foundation/common_voice_13_0) dataset.
Note that before running this script you must accept the dataset's [terms of use](https://huggingface.co/datasets/mozilla-foundation/common_voice_13_0)
and register your Hugging Face Hub token on your device by running `huggingface-hub login`.

```
On a TPU v4-8, training should take approximately 25 minutes, with a final cross-entropy loss of 0.02 and word error
rate of **34%**. See the checkpoint [sanchit-gandhi/whisper-small-hi-flax](https://huggingface.co/sanchit-gandhi/whisper-small-hi-flax)
for an example training run.
