Abstract

Cross-lingual speech recognition could be relevant for Multilingual Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems which work with under-resourced languages and appropriately equipped languages. In the Basque Country, the interest on Multilingual Automatic Speech Recognition systems comes from the fact that there are three official languages in use (Basque, Spanish, and French). Multilingual Basque speakers tend to mix words and sentences in the three languages in their discourse, and there are strong acoustic interactions among languages and among the Basque dialects. Moreover Basque has fewer resources and in order to decrease the negative impact that the lack of resources could generate the alternative surges in the form of cross-lingual alternatives, graphemes and data optimization methods.
