The Nipun Lakshya app, used in Uttar Pradesh for assessing students’ oral fluency via Bhashini APIs, faces challenges due to unreliable internet, leading to failed assessments and incorrect scores. To enable offline functionality, we reduced the model size from 460 MB to 140 MB using quantization (both static and dynamic). We further optimized the model with PyTorch for mobile compatibility and CPU performance. This will now allow for Bhashini’s ASR model to work offline with the Nipun Lakshya App.
