title: An Analysis of Personalized Speech Recognition System Development for the Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing
abstract: Deaf or hard-of-hearing (DHH) speakers typically have atypical speech caused by deafness. With the growing support of speech-based devices and software applications, more work needs to be done to make these devices inclusive to everyone. To do so, we analyze the use of openly-available automatic speech recognition (ASR) tools with a DHH Japanese speaker dataset. As these out-of-the-box ASR models typically do not perform well on DHH speech, we provide a thorough analysis of creating personalized
