Show HN: A retrainable subtitle synchronizer you can now build your own

Welcome to Subaligner’s documentation!

Given an out-of-sync subtitle file along with a piece of audiovisual content carrying speeches described by it, Subaligner provides a one-stop solution on automatic subtitle synchronisation with a pretrained deep neural network and forced alignments. In essence, aligning subtitles is a dual-stage process with a Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory network trained upfront and Subaligner helps subtitlers not only in preprocessing raw subtitle materials (outcome from stenographers or STT workflow, etc.) but also in gaining quality control over their work within subtitle post-production. This solution also tolerates errors occurred in live subtitles which sometimes do not completely or correctly represent what people actually spoke in the companion audiovisual content.

The source code can be found on GitHub: subaligner.
