A comparative analysis between Conformer-Transducer, Whisper, and wav2vec2 for improving the child speech recognition

1 code implementation7 Nov 2023 Andrei Barcovschi, Rishabh Jain, Peter Corcoran

We demonstrate that finetuning Conformer-transducer models on child speech yields significant improvements in ASR performance on child speech, compared to the non-finetuned models.

Adaptation of Whisper models to child speech recognition

1 code implementation24 Jul 2023 Rishabh Jain, Andrei Barcovschi, Mariam Yiwere, Peter Corcoran, Horia Cucu

We demonstrate that finetuning Whisper on child speech yields significant improvements in ASR performance on child speech, compared to non finetuned Whisper models.

A Wav2vec2-Based Experimental Study on Self-Supervised Learning Methods to Improve Child Speech Recognition

no code implementations6 Apr 2022 Rishabh Jain, Andrei Barcovschi, Mariam Yiwere, Dan Bigioi, Peter Corcoran, Horia Cucu

Our models outperformed the wav2vec2 BASE 960 on child speech which is considered a state-of-the-art ASR model on adult speech by just using 10 hours of child speech data in finetuning.
