"abstract": "In this study we investigate the potential of using Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) for keyword spotting for four Uralic languages: Finnish, Hungarian, Estonian and Komi. These languages also represent different levels on the high and low resource continuum. Although the accuracy of the ASR systems show there is a long way to go, we show that they still have potential to be useful for downstream tasks such as keyword spotting. By using a simple text search after running ASR, we are already able to achieve an F 1 score of between 0.15 and 0.33, a precision of nearly 0.90 for Estonian and Hungarian, and a precision of 0.76 for Komi.

"text": "Very large quantities of audio recordings exist for Uralic languages, as there is a long history of pri-mary data collection. It is another question how large a portion of these materials are adequately archived, and if they are, whether they are findable and accessible. The situation is continuously improving, and as different archives digitize their collections, the material that can be used relatively easily will keep increasing in size. At the same time materials that are not transcribed, translated or annotated can be very challenging to work with. This problem is not unique to the Uralic language materials, nor linguistic materials in general, but touches archived data very widely.",

"text": "Several experiments for Komi ASR have been conducted, but the quality has not yet reached levels where the models are particularly useful. The steady progress the work has yielded, however, warrants optimism. In the first reported experiment the results were extremely bad, but demonstrated that in principle these systems can be trained with the currently available data, and some insight was shown to the roles the language models and transfer learning may have in the training process (Hjortnaes et al., 2020). A later study refined the language model with online materials, which improved the result considerably (Hjortnaes et al., 2020) . All these models used English as the source language in transfer learning. Most recently an investigation was done about the possible use of other languages, and the transfer learning with Russian Common Voice data was tested (Hjortnaes et al., 2021) . The results improved due to changes in the Deep-Speech architecture between different versions, but the English transfer learning still gave better results due to the quantity of data available. Further testing of these models by the authors has shown that producing an accurate transcript from a very clearly pronounced Komi speech can work relatively well. In real spontaneous speech the results are extremely sporadic. However, since there is also a clear ratio of correctly recognized words, or their parts, we believe testing the model in real world scenarios for other down stream tasks such as keyword spotting could be very beneficial. When we search for words we expect to occur in the text, we ignore the impact of entirely incorrectly recognized words, and by boosting the individual keywords we improve the possibility of recognizing the words we want to find even further. Unfortunately this scenario is not entirely realistic, as in many instances we cannot know what themes and words are present. However, there are also many instances where metadata containing keyword and topic information exists, and the researchers who have done the recordings often have acute information about the topics covered, which they may want to locate in the recordings more automatically.",

This is a text that exists in two variants, as it has been recorded both as a sung and narrated version. The narrative version used in this experiment is 17 minutes long. This text is particularly relevant for testing keyword recognition, as it has culturally very relevant content to detect. However, the sang version of the text was already included in the training material of the model, invalidating any results obtained from testing on that data, and thereby excluded from comparison. Especially with the archival data, the same individual is often recorded numerous times, so a situation where some of their recordings are already included into the model is not entirely unrealistic. As always, further testing is obviously required with more speakers and text types. Also for Komi we manually selected 100 keywords that are represented in the text. As this Komi text was recorded with a tape recorded in 1966, it is very representative of archived Komi materials that do exist in large quantities in different archives. We described the wider context of the archival recordings most familiar to us in Section 2. This illustrates how one central goal in work described here is to be able to better navigate and access untranscribed archival recordings. We describe the related methodology next.",

Recall (Rec) is how many of the keywords in the test data the search is able to find. F 1 is a weighted average of precision and recall which tends towards whichever value is lower, meaning the best score is achieved by balancing precision and recall. This gives intuitively interpretable and comparative information about the experiments. Our results were the best for Estonian and Hungarian. We believe this is largely connected to the narrow domain which was present in the Common Voice recordings, namely that the clips are read. The low accuracy of Finnish is probably related to the small amount of training data. Without an accurate model, the keywords may not be correctly transcribed and will not show up in the text search. In the case of Komi we reach a relatively high precision, on par with Hungarian and Estonian where the domain was narrow, and here the large amount of training data must have some role. However, the clips are from natural speech instead of read, which explains the lower accuracy when compared to Hungarian and Estonian despite the large quantity of training data. This is not an excellent result, but already a step toward a clearly functional system. As the recall is very low, it must stated that the system is not very successful in finding the keywords, but when it suggests them, those are often correct.",

Also different fieldwork collections in Uralic languages could be very well suited for this task. Even though exact keyword and topic listings may not be very common in current metadata models, there is still a long tradition of compiling such topic indexes, and this is inarguably a very useful strategy to classify non-transcribed recordings.
