New streaming Thai speech recognition system offers low-latency and steerable vocabulary

Researchers have developed a novel streaming Thai speech recognition system called Typhoon ASR Streaming, designed for low-latency applications. This system addresses the limitations of existing Whisper-based models, which require processing the entire utterance before transcription. Typhoon ASR Streaming employs a cache-aware encoder and a shallow-fusion layer to enable real-time transcription with improved accuracy and speed. Additionally, the system allows for decode-time vocabulary steering, enhancing keyword recall without compromising overall accuracy. AI

IMPACT Enables real-time applications like voice agents and live captioning for Thai language users.

    Typhoon ASR Streaming: Steerable Low-Latency Thai Speech Recognition with Real-Time Shallow Fusion

    arXiv:2609.14991v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Open Thai automatic speech recognition (ASR) is dominated by offline, Whisper-based models that read the whole utterance before transcribing, ruling out low-latency uses such as live captioning and voice agents. We present a deploya…
