I'm excited to announce the latest version of TransformersPHP, packed with new features, improvements, and bug fixes. This release brings powerful enhancements to your machine-learning-driven PHP applications, enabling more efficient and versatile operations.

New Features

  • New Pipeline: Audio Classification - Easily classify audio clips with a pre-trained model.

    $classifier = pipeline('audio-classification', 'Xenova/ast-finetuned-audioset-10-10-0.4593');
$audioUrl = __DIR__ . '/../sounds/cat_meow.wav';
$output = $classifier($audioUrl);
// [
//   [
//     "label" => "Meow"
//     "score" => 0.6109990477562
//   ]
// ]

  • New Pipeline: Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) - Supports models like wav2vec and whisper for transcribing speech to text. If a specific model is not officially supported, please open an issue with a feature request.

    • Example: 
      $transcriber = pipeline('asr', 'Xenova/whisper-tiny.en');
$audioUrl = __DIR__ . '/../sounds/preamble.wav';
$output = $transcriber($audioUrl, maxNewTokens: 256);
// [
//   "text" => "We, the people of the United States, ..."
// ]

Enhancements

  • Shared Libraries Dependencies: - A revamped workflow for downloading shared libraries dependencies ensures they are versioned correctly, reducing download sizes. These binaries are now thoroughly tested on Apple Silicon, Intel Macs, Linux x86_64, Linux aarch64, and Windows platforms.

  • Transformers::setup Simplified - Transformers::setup() is now optional. Default settings are automatically applied if not called. The apply() method is no longer necessary, but still available for backward compatibility.

  • Immutable Image Utility - The Image utility class is now immutable. Each operation returns a new instance, allowing for method chaining and a more predictable workflow.

    $image = Image::read($url);
$resizedImage = $image->resize(100, 100);
// $image remains unchanged

  • New Tensor Operations - New operations were added: copyTo, log, exp, pow, sum, reciprocal, stdMean. Additionally, overall performance improvements have been made to Tensor operations.

  • TextStreamer Improvements - TextStreamer now prints to stdout by default. You can override this behavior using the onStream(callable $callback) method. Consequently, the StdoutStreamer class is now obsolete.

  • VIPS PHP Driver Update - The VIPS PHP driver is no longer bundled by default in composer.json. Detailed documentation is provided for installing the Vips PHP driver and setting up Vips on your machine.

  • ONNX Runtime Upgrade - Upgraded to version 1.19.0, bringing more performance and compatibility with newer models.

  • Bug Fixes & Performance Improvements - Various bug fixes have been implemented to enhance stability and performance across the package.

I hope you enjoy these updates and improvements. If you encounter any issues or have any suggestions, please don’t hesitate to reach out through our Issue Tracker
