Sara Zan<p>🚦 <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LiveKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LiveKit</span></a> released a transformers-based, semantic End-of-Turn detector, <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/opensource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>opensource</span></a> on <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/HuggingFace" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HuggingFace</span></a>[1]! This model complements voice activity detectors (<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/VAD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VAD</span></a>) by predicting whether the user's sentence is complete. This helps reduce false starts up to 85% according to their own testing, and is text-based, with a very low latency (~50ms).
