whisper : significantly improve the inference quality (#1148)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
* Fix MSVC compile error C3688

Instead of simply using 'add_compile_options(/utf-8)' to address the MSVC compile error C3688, a better approach would be to handle it in a way that prevents passing '/utf-8' to NVCC.

* Significantly improve inference quality

In the function `log_mel_spectrogram_worker_thread`, there's an array out-of-bounds issue occurring during the calculation of complex number moduli. This issue is causing disruptions in the FFT spectrum, which, in turn, is reducing the quality of inference.

* Significantly improve inference quality

At last, I've pinpointed the actual source of the problem. Given that the frequency spectrum generated from real input data is symmetrical around the Nyquist frequency, there's a for-loop within the `log_mel_spectrogram_worker_thread` function that attempts to fold the frequency spectrum. Regrettably, a bug within this for-loop is causing a frame shift in the frequency spectrum. The previous attempt to remedy this, which involved using `fft_size + 1` when calculating the modulus, was merely a band-aid solution and did not address the underlying issue.

* Addressed a few minor issues

Fixed the issue of `fft_out` continuously expanding. Resolved the fallback caused by using 'break' instead of `fft_in[j] = 0`.

* Significantly improve inference quality 

Thanks for your patience everyone. It's finally sorted out. Now, the right side of the FFT spectrum is being flipped over to the left, and the amplitudes at corresponding positions on the left and right are added together (the spectrum on the left needs to be shifted by one position), then the average is calculated. FFT_OUT[0] is no longer discarded, making full use of the limited space to pack in more information.

* Add annotation and performance improvement

* Calculate FFT only when fft_in are not all zero

* Some minor performance improvement

* Fixed a bug impacting inference quality

* The first version after all the analysis is completed.

* Fix some bugs and add debug mode

* Fixed several bugs

* Temporarily disable speed-up mode and add debug mode.
