arXiv:2605.23235v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Globalization and multiculturalism continue to produce increasingly diverse speech varieties. Yet current spoken dialogue systems frequently fail on under-represented dialects and accents, often misidentifying the input language and causing cascading failures in downstream dialogue tasks. Addressing this dialectal variance under low-resource constraints remains an open challenge, as standard fine-tuning is computationally expensive and prone to overfitting on high-dimensional speech data. We propose Convex Language Detection (CLD), a novel framew
Growing awareness of AI's limitations with diverse speech patterns and the increasing need for inclusive AI systems drive research into robust language detection.
This development addresses a critical barrier to wider AI adoption and equitable access, benefiting multicultural societies and various global industries that rely on voice interaction.
The ability to accurately detect languages and accents in speech with limited resources could lead to more robust and less biased AI systems for global users.
