Challenging the Abilities of Large Language Models in Italian: a Community Initiative
Malvina Nissim, Danilo Croce, Viviana Patti +78
The rapid progress of Large Language Models (LLMs) has transformed natural language processing and broadened its impact across research and society. Yet, systematic evaluation of t…
Simulstream: Open-Source Toolkit for Evaluation and Demonstration of Streaming Speech-to-Text Translation Systems
Marco Gaido, Sara Papi, Mauro Cettolo +2
Streaming Speech-to-Text Translation (StreamST) requires producing translations concurrently with incoming speech under strict latency constraints, demanding models that balance lo…
How to Evaluate Speech Translation with Source-Aware Neural MT Metrics
Mauro Cettolo, Marco Gaido, Matteo Negri +2
Automatic evaluation of ST systems is typically performed by comparing translation hypotheses with one or more reference translations. While effective to some extent, this approach…
Echoes of Phonetics: Unveiling Relevant Acoustic Cues for ASR via Feature Attribution
Dennis Fucci, Marco Gaido, Matteo Negri +2
Despite significant advances in ASR, the specific acoustic cues models rely on remain unclear. Prior studies have examined such cues on a limited set of phonemes and outdated model…
FAMA: The First Large-Scale Open-Science Speech Foundation Model for English and Italian
Sara Papi, Marco Gaido, Luisa Bentivogli +6
The development of speech foundation models (SFMs) like Whisper and SeamlessM4T has significantly advanced the field of speech processing. However, their closed nature--with inacce…
The Warmup Dilemma: How Learning Rate Strategies Impact Speech-to-Text Model Convergence
Marco Gaido, Sara Papi, Luisa Bentivogli +6
Training large-scale models presents challenges not only in terms of resource requirements but also in terms of their convergence. For this reason, the learning rate (LR) is often…
