The earlier English MGB focused on variety across TV genres; this edition focuses on variety across Arabic dialects. The organisers collected about 1,200 hours of Aljazeera TV recordings from 2005–2015, drawn from 19… 3. **[Automatic Dialect Detection in Arabic Broadcast Speech](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/ali-2015-automatic-dialect-detection-arabic-broadcast/)** *(2015 · 59 citations)* The paper tackles automatic identification of Arabic dialects from broadcast speech. It treats this as a harder variant of language identification, since the varieties belong to one language yet differ in lexicon and sound. The authors compare three utterance representations: 4. **[The Edinburgh International Accents of English Corpus: Towards the Democratization of English ASR](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/sanabria-2023-edinburgh-international-accents-english-corpus/)** *(2023 · 36 citations)* English ASR systems post very low error rates on standard benchmarks, but those test sets mostly contain US or UK speakers, often reading text aloud or talking over narrowband phones. ## All works 6 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 4 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1.
