Exploring Transfer of Self-supervised English Pretrained Model to Yoruba and French Languages in Very Low-Resource Settings

  • We use a self-supervised pretrained model trained on large amount of English speech
  • Model is finetuned on 1 hour of yoruba and french audio with labels
  • We compare this to training on 1 hour of audio in the target language from scratch.
  • Audio samples are from only 1 speaker
  • Surprisingly, we got better results finetuning on a single speaker for Yoruba language. Many factors could have contributed to this including gender (Male for Yoruba and Female for French, quality of audio recording etc)
  • Details of the project can be found on my github repo
