We are happy to announce that our DiCoW and DiariZen based system finished 🥈 in the Challenge and Workshop on Multilingual Conversational Speech Language Model (MLC-SLM) at Interspeech 2025 organized by Nexdata.jp【旧Datatang株式会社公式】!

In addition, I’m very pleased to share that our journal paper:
"DiCoW: Diarization-Conditioned Whisper for Target Speaker Automatic Speech Recognition"
👉https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S088523082500066X
has been accepted for publication in Computer Speech & Language (Elsevier)!
And last but not least — just yesterday I had the pleasure of presenting a tutorial and mini-challenge on fine-tuning DiCoW in data/compute constrained environments at this year's JSALT Summer School!
