CVSS-X: A Multilingual Speech-to-Speech Translation Corpus for 28 Languages

Lucas Rafael Stefanel Gris, Alef Iury Siqueira Ferreira, Frederico Santos de Oliveira +4

We introduce CVSS-X, a large-scale synthetic speech-to-speech translation corpus that extends CVSS by reversing the translation direction. While CVSS translates from 21 languages i…
