Open-source EOU detector released for English and 8 Indic languages

A new open-source End-of-Turn (EOU) detection model has been released, designed to prevent voice agents from cutting callers off mid-sentence. This model is particularly beneficial for languages like those in India, where sentence structure can lead to premature interruptions by bots. The EOU detector, fine-tuned from Qwen2.5-0.5B, supports English and eight Indic languages and can run locally on CPU using ONNX Runtime. AI

IMPACT Improves voice agent interaction by preventing mid-sentence interruptions, particularly for Indic languages.
