In-domain SSL pre-training and streaming ASR
In this study, we investigate the benefits of domain-specific self-supervised pre-training for both offline and streaming ASR in Air Traffic Control (ATC) environments. We train BEST-RQ models on 4.5k hours of unlabeled ATC data, then fine-tune on a smaller supervised ATC set. To enable real-time processing, we propose using chunked attention and dynamic convolutions, ensuring low-latency inference. We compare these in-domain SSL models against state-of-the-art, general-purpose speech encoders …

Education and Outreach Across Seventeen Countries of the Pierre Auger Collaboration
The Pierre Auger Observatory, dedicated to measuring ultra-high energy cosmic rays, has been promoting for more than two decades educational and scientific outreach activities to make its results known in an understandable language to diverse audiences. Among its most notable efforts, we can mention the creation of a visitor center at the Observatory site in Malargüe, Argentina, the production of brochures, posters, videos, talks, and special actions with the community in the site of the Obser…

I agree that it’s better to be prepared than having to frantically try to find ways to cut costs. But it’s gonna be tough either way, since this comes at a time when universities are already struggling with massively reduced budgets.
And unlike what some administrators believe, “just get yourself another SNSF project” (to make up for a lack of structural funding), has never worked, and a dwindling acceptance rate definitely won’t help.
