Hugging Face Open ASR Leaderboard 新增埃及与尼日利亚英语口音私有数据
Egyptian and Nigerian English join the Open ASR Leaderboard
Hugging Face 与 Liva AI 合作，在 Open ASR Leaderboard 的私有数据中新增埃及和尼日利亚两种英语口音，分别包含 1.34 小时和 1.55 小时对话式语音。榜单现按 Kachru 三圈模型报告口音分组，区分美国与非美国，以及内圈与外围/扩展圈。
A few months ago, we added private data to the Open ASR Leaderboard: 11 splits from Appen and DataOceanAI covering scripted and conversational speech from five accents (blog). The community response was great, with many highlighting the importance of held-out sets for trustworthy evaluations. Since then, we added one more private split for Indian-accented English with Voice Arena (blog).
We’re excited to announce a new collaboration with Liva AI to add even more private data with two new accents: Egyptian 🇪🇬 and Nigerian 🇳🇬.
| Dataset | Accent | Duration [h] | Style | Transcription |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Liva AI Conversational EG | Egyptian | 1.34 | Conversational, spontaneous | Punctuated, cased, with disfluencies. |
| Liva AI Conversational NG | Nigerian | 1.55 | Conversational, spontaneous | Punctuated, cased, with disfluencies. |
This is part of our continued effort to improve representation in ASR evals (more accents and more languages) and to improve trust (new private data to minimize benchmaxxing, and new data providers). We’re excited to see the community continuing to push ASR performance for the world 🤗
Richer accent breakdown in the Private tab
With these new accents, we can now present a richer breakdown of accents, based on Kachru’s Three Circles (kudos to Hume AI for this idea in their leaderboard). The Open ASR Leaderboard will now report:
- US vs. non-US (UK, Australia, Canada, India, Nigeria, Egypt)
- Inner Circle (US, UK, Australia, Canada) vs. Outer & Expanding Circles (India, Nigeria, Egypt)
As more accents join, we’ll split the Outer and Expanding Circles.
About Liva AI
Liva AI collects multimodal interaction data through consumer products used by real people. Because Liva owns both the collection environment and distribution, it can design products around specific model gaps across domains, industries, languages, modalities, and interaction types. This gives it access to natural, high-context behavior that emerges through real product use, rather than artificially elicited or task-based interactions.
