MekongPhon is presented, a large-scale, high-quality parallel IPA corpus for Lao and Khmer, and linguistically informed Lao and Khmer transliteration tools that offer high-speed IPA conversion, outperforming Epitran by 6-71 CER points.
Progress in dialectal speech technology is hindered by the scarcity of large-scale, real-world corpora. For Minnan speech, existing resources remain limited, and few provide paired Minnan and Mandarin transcripts at scale. To address these gaps, we introduce WenetSpeech-Min, an open-source corpus comprising around 10,0...

Vietnamese speech research is constrained by resources that isolate automatic speech recognition from speaker, dialect, code-switching, and deepfake analysis. We introduce VietPrism, an open, multi-domain corpus that brings these dimensions together at scale: 993.4 hours and 403,941 bona fide utterances from 1,262 veri...
A preliminary study on the adaptation of Whisper for Automatic Speech Recognition in Baniwa, an indigenous Arawakan language spoken in Brazil, Colombia, and Venezuela, demonstrating that multilingual foundation models can be successfully adapted to extremely low-resource indigenous languages.

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) for low-resource languages remains a major challenge. Sinhala, the primary language of Sri Lanka with about 16 million speakers, illustrates the difficulty: agglutinative morphology, a 54-phoneme inventory, subject-object-verb (SOV) syntax and scarce annotated speech data limit both c...
MULTISPEECHQA, a large-scale, synthetically generated and human-verified dataset comprising 9200 hours of 10.8 million spoken question-answer pairs in 23 typologically diverse languages, is presented and shows that high-quality synthetic datasets offer a cheap solution to improving the multilingual capabilities of SLMs...

Long-form text-to-speech must retain requested words over extended generations, yet sentence-level training and evaluation can hide omissions and early stops. We introduce Balalaika-Longform, an open Russian corpus of 189 hours in continuous units of 30 seconds to 15 minutes. Long units and matched short windows suppor...
