Automatic speech recognition (ASR) allows transcribing the communications between air traffic controllers (ATCOs) and aircraft pilots. The transcriptions are used later to extract ATC named entities, e.g., aircraft callsigns. One common…

State-of-the-art end-to-end automatic speech recognition (ASR) extracts acoustic features from input speech signal every 10 ms which corresponds to a frame rate of 100 frames/second. In this report, we investigate the use of high-frame-rate…

In this paper, we propose a novel approach for the transcription of speech conversations with natural speaker overlap, from single channel speech recordings. The proposed model is a combination of a speaker diarization system and a hybrid…
