German is a morphologically rich language whose syllable structure is exceptionally well-predicted by the Knuth--Liang hyphenation algorithm. We ask whether phonologically informed tokenization can serve as a competitive target for end-to-end speech recognition. We compare three tokenizer families on the Omnilingual AS …
We present the Spoken Wikipedia Presentation Corpus, an extension of the Spoken Wikipedia Corpora featuring LLM-generated slide decks for multimodal ASR. Slides are created from LLM-segmented sections using a hybrid pipeline that combines LLM-based content planning with rule-based design decisions. For each section, an …
Long transcripts are costly inputs for downstream NLP systems and often contain irrelevant context. We study query-conditioned topic localization: predicting the sentence span in a transcript that best addresses a topic-title query. To improve span localization, we reuse ASR encoder states as sentence-level representat …
