V\={a}kQA, a Telugu SQA benchmark of 2,001 factoid question-answer pairs across six domains, is introduced and it is observed that Telugu phrasing retains cultural specificity that is lost in translation, speech input introduces phonetic confusions that alter question meaning, and cascaded ASR-MT errors compound progre...

Speech enhancement models optimised for perceptual quality metrics such as PESQ do not necessarily improve automatic speech recognition (ASR) performance, as aggressive noise suppression can distort the phonemic cues that acoustic models rely on. We propose a time-domain speech frontend based on the Mamba selective sta...

Current systems for stuttering detection are limited by task-agnostic feature compression and flat layer-fusion strategies. Traditional methods rely on Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to reduce self-supervised representations, which often suppresses subtle disfluency patterns in favor of speakeridentity cues. We pro...

Text-to-speech systems are improving fast, but measuring how natural they sound still requires expensive human listening tests. Existing automatic methods struggle to generalise well across different datasets. We present QMOS, a MOS prediction framework that extracts hierarchical speech quality features from a frozen Q...

Developing Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems for specialized medical domains is challenging in lowresource settings due to the limited availability of annotated speech data. Synthetic speech generated using text to speech (TTS) systems is often used to augment training data, but directly mixing synthetic and r...
