The paper introduces a new target‑speaker unlearning task for automatic speech recognition (TSU‑ASR) that allows certain speakers to opt out of transcription while still indicating their presence. A lightweight Enrollment‑Conditioned Gating (ECG) module is added to a frozen dual‑stream speech LLM, enabling dynamic unlearning of new opt‑out speakers during inference. Experiments on AMI and AliMeeting datasets show significant drops in transcription accuracy for opt‑out speakers while preserving performance for retained speakers.

The paper explores activation steering as a method to enhance automatic speech recognition (ASR) performance and demographic fairness. It compares two techniques—paired activation subtraction and supervised optimization—finding that supervised optimization effectively improves overall ASR accuracy and fairness across gender, age, and dialect. The study also demonstrates that steering vectors trained on acoustically similar speakers can yield competitive or superior results, enabling few‑shot or zero‑shot adaptation without requiring demographic labels.
