✨Meet OLMoASR✨ By pairing our curated 1M-hour dataset with a powerful architecture, we've built open ASR models that achieve competitive performance with models like Whisper. We're open-sourcing data, code and models to help the community build more robust and transparent ASR.

Now that school is starting for lots of folks, it's time for a new release of Speech and Language Processing! Jim and I added all sorts of material for the August 2025 release! With slides to match! Check it out here: web.stanford.edu/~jurafsky/sl...

Big THANK YOU to the amazing #Interspeech2025 Organizing Committee! 💙 🎤 Odette Scharenborg, Catharine Oertel, Khiet Truong 💰 Martijn Bartelds 🌐 Dragoș Bălan 🗂️ Saskia Peters 🤝 Ginny Ruiter, Marie Louise Verhagen, Natascha Voskuijl

🎙️ Speech recognition is great - if you speak the right language. Our new @stanfordnlp.bsky.social paper introduces CTC-DRO, a training method that reduces worst-language errors by up to 47.1%. Work w/ Ananjan, Moussa, @jurafsky.bsky.social, Tatsu Hashimoto and Karen Livescu. Here’s how it works 🧵

I am excited to announce that I will join the University of Zurich as an assistant professor in August this year! I am looking for PhD students and postdocs starting from the fall. My research interests include optimization, federated learning, machine learning, privacy, and unlearning.

📢 Join us for the Conversational AI Reading Group meeting on Thursday, January 16th, 11 AM-12 PM EST. Martijn Bartelds will present "Improving Universal Access to Modern Speech Technology". Details here: poonehmousavi.github.io/rg

Happy New Year everyone! Jim and I just put up our January 2025 release of Speech and Language Processing! Check it out here: web.stanford.edu/~jurafsky/sl...

Natural Language Processing—artificial intelligence that uses human language—has been on a roll lately. You’ve probably noticed! So the Stanford NLP Group has been growing, and diversifying into lots of new topics, including agents, language model programs, and socially aware #NLP. nlp.stanford.edu

Excited to announce the launch of our ML-SUPERB 2.0 challenge @interspeech.bsky.social 2025! Join us in pushing the boundaries of multilingual ASR and LID! 🚀 💻 multilingual.superbbenchmark.org

Hi speech people, super exciting news here! We are running another "Multimodal information based speech (MISP)" Challenge at @interspeech.bsky.social Participate! Spread the word! More info 👇 mispchallenge.github.io/mispchalleng...
