TID System for Speech-COSER Challenge 2026: ASR Track

원문 초록

We describe the system submitted by Telef\'onica Innovaci\'on Digital to the Speech-COSER Challenge 2026, which features spontaneous speech from elderly speakers recorded in rural Spain. For ASR, we perform CTC-based pseudo-forced alignment scores audio-text match quality to guide a two-stage LoRA curriculum, followed by post-hoc magnitude pruning of the LoRA matrices to enhance generalization. An ensemble of seven systems combined via ROVER achieves 36.25\% unnormalized and 22.17\% normalized WER.
