Token merging mitigates this inefficiency by dynamically combining redundant features, shortening the sequence length during inference without requiring retraining. In this paper, we systematically evaluate token merging on the Whisper model family across sixteen diverse languages and three different model sizes. We also test how token merging interacts with fine-tuning (DoRA) on low-resource languages. Our findings show that merging tokens increases computational efficiency with almost no loss in transcription accuracy across most low-resource languages and model sizes, and it works even after the model has been fine-tuned. Our results demonstrate that token merging is a highly practical method for making multilingual speech recognition faster and cheaper to deploy.
