Predicting positive transfer for improved low-resource speech recognition using acoustic pseudo-tokens
Continued pre-training on 70-200 hours of untranscribed speech in these languages can help -- but what about languages without that much recorded data?

Developing Speech Processing Pipelines for Police Accountability
We investigate the potential of large pre-trained speech models for facilitating reviews, focusing on ASR and officer speech detection in footage from traffic stops.
Making More of Little Data: Improving Low-Resource Automatic Speech Recognition Using Data Augmentation
For Gronings, for which there was a pre-existing text-to-speech (TTS) system available, we also examined the use of TTS to generate ASR training data from text-only sources.

Leveraging supplementary text data to kick-start automatic speech recognition system development with limited transcriptions
We perform experiments using 10 minutes of transcribed speech from English (for replicating prior work) and two additional pairs of languages differing in the availability of supplemental text data: Gronings and Frisian (~7. 5M token corpora available), and Besemah and Nasal (only small lexica available).

Automated speech tools for helping communities process restricted-access corpora for language revival efforts
An even narrower bottleneck occurs for recordings with access constraints, such as language that must be vetted or filtered by authorised community members before annotation can begin.
Leveraging pre-trained representations to improve access to untranscribed speech from endangered languages
Surprisingly, the English model outperformed the multilingual model on 4 Australian language datasets, raising questions around how to optimally leverage self-supervised speech representations for QbE-STD.
