Lamer-SSL: Layer-aware Mixture of LoRA Experts for Continual Multilingual Expansion of Self-supervised Models without Forgetting
Jing Xu, Minglin Wu, Xueyuan Chen +2
Despite their impressive performance, self-supervised speech models often struggle to generalize to new languages and tend to forget previously acquired knowledge during continual…
Towards Effective and Efficient Non-autoregressive decoders for Conformer and LLM-based ASR using Block-based Attention Mask
Tianzi Wang, Xurong Xie, Zengrui Jin +9
Automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems often rely on autoregressive (AR) Transformer decoder architectures, which limit efficient inference parallelization due to their sequent…
On-the-fly Routing for Zero-shot MoE Speaker Adaptation of Speech Foundation Models for Dysarthric Speech Recognition
Shujie HU, Xurong Xie, Mengzhe Geng +8
This paper proposes a novel MoE-based speaker adaptation framework for foundation models based dysarthric speech recognition. This approach enables zero-shot adaptation and real-ti…
Structured Speaker-Deficiency Adaptation of Foundation Models for Dysarthric and Elderly Speech Recognition
Shujie Hu, Xurong Xie, Mengzhe Geng +8
Data-intensive fine-tuning of speech foundation models (SFMs) to scarce and diverse dysarthric and elderly speech leads to data bias and poor generalization to unseen speakers. Thi…

Lingwei Meng, Shujie Hu, Jiawen Kang +6
Recent advancements in large language models (LLMs) have revolutionized various domains, bringing significant progress and new opportunities. Despite progress in speech-related tas…
Homogeneous Speaker Features for On-the-Fly Dysarthric and Elderly Speaker Adaptation
Mengzhe Geng, Xurong Xie, Jiajun Deng +7
The application of data-intensive automatic speech recognition (ASR) technologies to dysarthric and elderly adult speech is confronted by their mismatch against healthy and nonaged…
Self-supervised ASR Models and Features For Dysarthric and Elderly Speech Recognition
Shujie Hu, Xurong Xie, Mengzhe Geng +8
Self-supervised learning (SSL) based speech foundation models have been applied to a wide range of ASR tasks. However, their application to dysarthric and elderly speech via data-i…
