Speaker diarization (labels) for OpenAI Whisper generated transcripts

I tried using this for a technical talk[1], and it got the amount of speakers wrong. Which is somewhat suprising to me, as I would have thought diarization tech would just worked by now.

I'm gonna give it a try with your video. If I may ask how many speakers are there in this video. (I have to go through all of it otherwise). From what I can see, we have a teacher who is speaking most of the times and then few laughs from students in the background.

There are a couple of people interejecting with answers to questions, or asking questions. I'm afraid I don't have a better estiamte than that. But in this case, I think lumping the students together as one speaker and the teacher as another would be fine.

Woah! I've been facing the same problems with pyannote+whisper for diarization+transcription, and, coincidentally, was just experimenting with combining NeMO and whisper. Do you happen to have a repo for this? Would be invaluable.

I have attached a link to Google colab with the article.
