Speaker Targeting via Self-Speaker Adaptation for Multi-talker ASR
Weiqing Wang, Taejin Park, Ivan Medennikov +6
We propose a self-speaker adaptation method for streaming multi-talker automatic speech recognition (ASR) that eliminates the need for explicit speaker queries. Unlike conventional…
Sortformer: A Novel Approach for Permutation-Resolved Speaker Supervision in Speech-to-Text Systems
Taejin Park, Ivan Medennikov, Kunal Dhawan +6
Sortformer is an encoder-based speaker diarization model designed for supervising speaker tagging in speech-to-text models. Instead of relying solely on permutation invariant loss…
Resource-Efficient Adaptation of Speech Foundation Models for Multi-Speaker ASR
Weiqing Wang, Kunal Dhawan, Taejin Park +6
Speech foundation models have achieved state-of-the-art (SoTA) performance across various tasks, such as automatic speech recognition (ASR) in hundreds of languages. However, multi…
META-CAT: Speaker-Informed Speech Embeddings via Meta Information Concatenation for Multi-talker ASR
Jinhan Wang, Weiqing Wang, Kunal Dhawan +7
We propose a novel end-to-end multi-talker automatic speech recognition (ASR) framework that enables both multi-speaker (MS) ASR and target-speaker (TS) ASR. Our proposed model is…
