English SpeechT5, when fine-tuned on Arabic, stayed strongly biased toward English and produced weak results. The authors built ArTST by keeping the SpeechT5 design: a shared T5-style encoder-decoder with separate small… 2. **[ClArTTS: An Open-Source Classical Arabic Text-to-Speech Corpus](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/kulkarni-2023-clartts-open-source-classical-arabic/)** *(2023 · 27 citations)* Arabic speech synthesis lags behind English largely because there is little suitable training data. Freely available Arabic speech collections tend to be multi-speaker and casual, with uneven recording quality. Corpora built specifically for TTS are compact sets designed for phonetic coverage, too small for modern… 3. **[Yet Another Model for Arabic Dialect Identification](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/kulkarni-2023-yet-another-model-arabic-dialect/)** *(2023 · 10 citations)* The paper addresses spoken Arabic dialect identification (ADI). On the two standard benchmarks, ADI-5 (MGB-3) and ADI-17 (MGB-5), the winning challenge systems had never been beaten in later work. The authors limit their search to a 2×2 grid. The networks are ResNet and ECAPA-TDNN, both borrowed from speaker… ## All works 4 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 3 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1. **[ArTST: Arabic Text and Speech Transformer](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/toyin-2023-artst-arabic-text-speech-transformer/) [Arabic Natural Language Processing Conference (ArabicNLP)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/arabicnlp/)**Hawau Olamide Toyin, Amirbek Djanibekov, Ajinkya Kulkarni, et al.*2023 · 27 citations* 2. **[ClArTTS: An Open-Source Classical Arabic Text-to-Speech Corpus](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/kulkarni-2023-clartts-open-source-classical-arabic/) [Interspeech](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/interspeech-usb/)**Ajinkya Kulkarni, Atharva Kulkarni, Sara Abedalmonem Mohammad Shatnawi, et al.*2023 · 27 citations* 3. **[Yet Another Model for Arabic Dialect Identification](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/kulkarni-2023-yet-another-model-arabic-dialect/) [Arabic Natural Language Processing Conference (ArabicNLP)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/arabicnlp/)**Ajinkya Kulkarni, Hanan Aldarmaki*2023 · 10 citations* 4. **[GECko+: a Grammatical and Discourse Error Correction Tool ↗](https://aclanthology.org/2021.jeptalnrecital-demo.3/) Actes de la 28e Conférence sur le Traitement Automatique des Langues Naturelles.
