Abstract

With the success of the first Multi-channel Multi-party Meeting Transcription challenge (M2MeT), the second M2MeT challenge (M2MeT 2.0) held in ASRU2023 particularly aims to tackle the complex task of \emph{speaker-attributed ASR (SA-ASR)}, which directly addresses the practical and challenging problem of ``who spoke what at when" at typical meeting scenario. We particularly established two sub-tracks. The fixed training condition sub-track, where the training data is constrained to predetermined datasets, but participants can use any open-source pre-trained model. The open training condition sub-track, which allows for the use of all available data and models without limitation. In addition, we release a new 10-hour test set for challenge ranking. This paper provides an overview of the dataset, track settings, results, and analysis of submitted systems, as a benchmark to show the current state of speaker-attributed ASR.
