arXiv:2610.09321v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Speech Language Model (SLM) performance often degrades on dialects due to data scarcity. Conventional text-to-speech (TTS) augmentation struggles to co...
arXiv:2608. 08067v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current end-to-end speech dialogue models are primarily optimized for mainstream languages and remain limited in low-resource dialect scenarios due to the scarcity of dialect speech data.
Dialectal variation remains a major challenge for multilingual language models. Perturbation-based continued pre-training (CPT) has emerged as a promising approach to improving robustness, yet existing work largely evaluates individual perturbation strategies in isolation and provides limited insight into why they work.

arXiv:2606. 01016v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While End-to-End (E2E) Speech-Large Language Models (Speech-LLMs) are rapidly evolving, their evaluation methodologies remain limited to the era of simple transcription.
Conversational ASR for lower-resource languages and niche domains is limited by the scarcity of domain-matched multi-speaker training data. We propose an augmentation pipeline that generates scenario-level dialogues with participant metadata, maps speaker attributes to TTS voice profiles, and assembles synthesized utterances into speaker-aware simulated conversations.
