AV-HuBERT, a multi-modal self-supervised learning model, has been shown to be effective for categorical problems such as automatic speech recognition and lip-reading. This suggests that useful audio-visual speech representations can be…

Self-supervised learning (SSL) has been dramatically successful not only in monolingual but also in cross-lingual settings. However, since the two settings have been studied individually in general, there has been little research focusing…
