Domain Specific Wav2vec 2.0 Fine-tuning For The SE&R 2022 Challenge (2207.14418v1)
Published 29 Jul 2022 in cs.CL, cs.SD, and eess.AS
Abstract: This paper presents our efforts to build a robust ASR model for the shared task Automatic Speech Recognition for spontaneous and prepared speech & Speech Emotion Recognition in Portuguese (SE&R 2022). The goal of the challenge is to advance the ASR research for the Portuguese language, considering prepared and spontaneous speech in different dialects. Our method consist on fine-tuning an ASR model in a domain-specific approach, applying gain normalization and selective noise insertion. The proposed method improved over the strong baseline provided on the test set in 3 of the 4 tracks available
