Investigating the Emergent Audio Classification Ability of ASR Foundation Models

1 code implementation15 Nov 2023 Rao Ma, Adian Liusie, Mark J. F. Gales, Kate M. Knill

Text and vision foundation models can perform many tasks in a zero-shot setting, a desirable property that enables these systems to be applied in general and low-resource settings.

Adapting an ASR Foundation Model for Spoken Language Assessment

no code implementations13 Jul 2023 Rao Ma, Mengjie Qian, Mark J. F. Gales, Kate M. Knill

Additionally, these models have a tendency to skip disfluencies and hesitations in the output.

Adapting an Unadaptable ASR System

no code implementations1 Jun 2023 Rao Ma, Mengjie Qian, Mark J. F. Gales, Kate M. Knill

As speech recognition model sizes and training data requirements grow, it is increasingly common for systems to only be available via APIs from online service providers rather than having direct access to models themselves.

L2 proficiency assessment using self-supervised speech representations

no code implementations16 Nov 2022 Stefano Bannò, Kate M. Knill, Marco Matassoni, Vyas Raina, Mark J. F. Gales

Though the wav2vec 2. 0 based system is found to be sensitive to the nature of the response, it can be configured to yield comparable performance to systems requiring a speech transcription, and yields gains when appropriately combined with standard approaches.
