• Abstract summary: The ISCSLP 2022 CSASR challenge provided two training sets, TAL_CSASR corpus and MagicData-RAMC corpus, a development and a test set for participants. More than 40 teams participated in this challenge, and the winner team achieved 16.70% Mixture Error Rate (MER) performance on the test set. In this paper, we will describe the datasets, the associated baselines system and the requirements, and summarize the CSASR challenge results and major techniques and tricks used in the submitted systems.

• Abstract: Code-switching automatic speech recognition becomes one of the most challenging and the most valuable scenarios of automatic speech recognition, due to the code-switching phenomenon between multilingual language and the frequent occurrence of code-switching phenomenon in daily life. The ISCSLP 2022 Chinese-English Code-Switching Automatic Speech Recognition (CSASR) Challenge aims to promote the development of code-switching automatic speech recognition. The ISCSLP 2022 CSASR challenge provided two training sets, TAL_CSASR corpus and MagicData-RAMC corpus, a development and a test set for participants, which are used for CSASR model training and evaluation. Along with the challenge, we also provide the baseline system performance for reference. As a result, more than 40 teams participated in this challenge, and the winner team achieved 16.70% Mixture Error Rate (MER) performance on the test set and has achieved 9.8% MER absolute improvement compared with the baseline system. In this paper, we will describe the datasets, the associated baselines system and the requirements, and summarize the CSASR challenge results and major techniques and tricks used in the submitted systems.

• Code Switched and Code Mixed Speech Recognition for Indic languages [0.0]
  Training multilingual automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems is challenging because acoustic and lexical information is typically language specific. We compare the performance of end to end multilingual speech recognition system to the performance of monolingual models conditioned on language identification (LID) We also propose a similar technique to solve the Code Switched problem and achieve a WER of 21.77 and 28.27 over Hindi-English and Bengali-English respectively.

  This paper presents the sequence-to-sequence (seq2seq) baseline system for the voice conversion challenge (VCC) 2020. We consider a naive approach for voice conversion (VC), which is to first transcribe the input speech with an automatic speech recognition (ASR) model. We revisit this method under a sequence-to-sequence (seq2seq) framework by utilizing ESPnet, an open-source end-to-end speech processing toolkit.
