‪Findings from ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/106... show that speech SSL models converge on similar embedding spaces, but via different routes. While overall representations align, individual neurons learn distinct localized concepts.‬
‪Interesting read! @fbk-mt.bsky.social
Speech Representation Analysis Based on Inter- and Intra-Model Similarities
Self-supervised models have revolutionized speech processing, achieving new levels of performance in a wide variety of tasks with limited resources. However, the inner workings of these models are sti...

🔍 Stiamo studiando come l'AI viene usata in Italia e per farlo abbiamo costruito un sondaggio!

(è anonimo, richiede ~10 minuti, e se partecipi o lo fai girare ci aiuti un sacco🙏)

Ci interessa anche raggiungere persone che non si occupano e non sono esperte di AI!

More great news! 🎉
Our paper “Echoes of Phonetics: Unveiling Relevant Acoustic Cues for ASR via Feature Attribution” has been accepted at #Interspeech2025!

If you’re interested in interpretability for speech models, stay tuned, the preprint is coming soon!

So happy our paper “Different Speech Translation Models Encode and Translate Speaker Gender Differently” was accepted at #ACL2025 (main)! 🎉

The preprint will be out soon!

As someone investigating how speech models use acoustic-related info, it’s great to see more work on evaluating whether prosodic features are leveraged in speech translation, like in aclanthology.org/2024.wmt-1.1.... We definitely need more research in this space!
