Which Evaluation for Which Model? A Taxonomy for Speech Model Assessment

Maureen de Seyssel, Eeshan Gunesh Dhekane

Speech foundation models have recently achieved remarkable capabilities across a wide range of tasks. However, their evaluation remains disjointed across tasks and model types. Dif…

ProsAudit, a prosodic benchmark for self-supervised speech models

Maureen de Seyssel, Marvin Lavechin, Hadrien Titeux +6

We present ProsAudit, a benchmark in English to assess structural prosodic knowledge in self-supervised learning (SSL) speech models. It consists of two subtasks, their correspondi…

Are word boundaries useful for unsupervised language learning?

Tu Anh Nguyen, Maureen de Seyssel, Robin Algayres +3

Word or word-fragment based Language Models (LM) are typically preferred over character-based ones in many downstream applications. This may not be surprising as words seem more li…

Is the Language Familiarity Effect gradual? A computational modelling approach

Maureen de Seyssel, Guillaume Wisniewski, Emmanuel Dupoux

According to the Language Familiarity Effect (LFE), people are better at discriminating between speakers of their native language. Although this cognitive effect was largely studie…

Probing phoneme, language and speaker information in unsupervised speech representations

Maureen de Seyssel, Marvin Lavechin, Yossi Adi +2

Unsupervised models of representations based on Contrastive Predictive Coding (CPC)[1] are primarily used in spoken language modelling in that they encode phonetic information. In…

The Zero Resource Speech Challenge 2021: Spoken language modelling

Ewan Dunbar, Mathieu Bernard, Nicolas Hamilakis +6

We present the Zero Resource Speech Challenge 2021, which asks participants to learn a language model directly from audio, without any text or labels. The challenge is based on the…

The Zero Resource Speech Benchmark 2021: Metrics and baselines for unsupervised spoken language modeling

Tu Anh Nguyen, Maureen de Seyssel, Patricia Rozé +5

We introduce a new unsupervised task, spoken language modeling: the learning of linguistic representations from raw audio signals without any labels, along with the Zero Resource S…
