Title: Pretrained self-supervised speech models can recognize unseen consonants
Abstract:
arXiv:2606.11542v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern pretrained self-supervised automatic speech recognition models are trained on large-scale audio data to encode speech into contextualized representations. However, their training data are heavily skewed toward high-resource languages with little data from low-resource languages, raising concerns about the potential underrepresentation of typologically uncommon speech sounds such as click consonants primarily found in Khoisan languages.
