Token Merging for Multilingual Speech Recognition Studied Across Model Scale

A new arXiv study systematically examines token merging as a way to cut the computational cost of large multilingual speech recognition models such as Whisper. The technique dynamically combines token representations during inference, and the authors test how its effectiveness varies with model size and fine-tuning. The work targets deployment efficiency for transcribing low-resource languages without language-specific training.

arXiv paper proposes sequential adapter stacking for low-resource ASR

A new arXiv preprint describes a method that stacks adapters sequentially to help large multilingual speech recognition models handle low-resource languages. The authors note that current systems perform unevenly, favoring high-resource languages and losing accuracy where labeled audio is scarce. The abstract covers the approach at a high level, with results and evaluation details not included in the excerpt.

arXiv paper describes Sophea, a production Greek-English speech recognition system

A research team reports on a multi-month engineering effort to build Sophea, a bilingual Greek-English automatic speech recognition system intended for production use. The system was assessed against nine production gates, including word error rates for both languages and language identification performance. The work is presented as a case study in the engineering work required to move speech recognition from research to deployment.

Orukeet paper proposes multilingual ASR using frozen Gabor kernels in Parakeet encoder

A new research paper introduces Orukeet, a speech recognition model that replaces half of an adapted Parakeet encoder's temporal filtering layers with 12,288 fitted Gabor kernels, which are then kept frozen. The remaining parameters are trained on multilingual and multi-accent speech data, followed by a final adaptation and checkpoint selection stage. The approach aims to extend strong transcription models to more languages and accents.
