Study Measures Generation Gap Between Speech-Only and Speech-Text Models
A new arXiv paper proposes a way to quantify the quality gap between speech-only language models and those that also handle text. The authors note that the gap is hard to measure because speech and text systems are usually trained on different data and judged with different metrics. The method aims to put the two modalities on a comparable footing.
