{"abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"Following the success of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th CHiME challenges we\r\norganize the 6th CHiME Speech Separation and Recognition Challenge (CHiME-6).\r\nThe new challenge revisits the previous CHiME-5 challenge and further considers\r\nthe problem of distant multi-microphone conversational speech diarization and\r\nrecognition in everyday home environments. Speech material is the same as the\r\nprevious CHiME-5 recordings except for accurate array synchronization. The\r\nmaterial was elicited using a dinner party scenario with efforts taken to\r\ncapture data that is representative of natural conversational speech. This\r\npaper provides a baseline description of the CHiME-6 challenge for both\r\nsegmented multispeaker speech recognition (Track 1) and unsegmented\r\nmultispeaker speech recognition (Track 2). Of note, Track 2 is the first\r\nchallenge activity in the community to tackle an unsegmented multispeaker\r\nspeech recognition scenario with a complete set of reproducible open source\r\nbaselines providing speech enhancement, speaker diarization, and speech\r\nrecognition modules."}],"author":[{"full_name":"Watanabe, Shinji","last_name":"Watanabe","first_name":"Shinji"},{"last_name":"Mandel","full_name":"Mandel, Michael","first_name":"Michael"},{"first_name":"Jon","full_name":"Barker, Jon","last_name":"Barker"},{"last_name":"Vincent","full_name":"Vincent, Emmanuel","first_name":"Emmanuel"},{"first_name":"Ashish","last_name":"Arora","full_name":"Arora, Ashish"},{"first_name":"Xuankai","last_name":"Chang","full_name":"Chang, Xuankai"},{"full_name":"Khudanpur, Sanjeev","last_name":"Khudanpur","first_name":"Sanjeev"},{"first_name":"Vimal","full_name":"Manohar, Vimal","last_name":"Manohar"},{"first_name":"Daniel","last_name":"Povey","full_name":"Povey, Daniel"},{"full_name":"Raj, Desh","last_name":"Raj","first_name":"Desh"},{"last_name":"Snyder","full_name":"Snyder, David","first_name":"David"},{"full_name":"Subramanian, Aswin Shanmugam","last_name":"Subramanian","first_name":"Aswin Shanmugam"},{"first_name":"Jan","last_name":"Trmal","full_name":"Trmal, Jan"},{"first_name":"Bar Ben","full_name":"Yair, Bar Ben","last_name":"Yair"},{"first_name":"Christoph","full_name":"Boeddeker, Christoph","id":"40767","last_name":"Boeddeker"},{"last_name":"Ni","full_name":"Ni, Zhaoheng","first_name":"Zhaoheng"},{"first_name":"Yusuke","last_name":"Fujita","full_name":"Fujita, Yusuke"},{"first_name":"Shota","last_name":"Horiguchi","full_name":"Horiguchi, Shota"},{"first_name":"Naoyuki","last_name":"Kanda","full_name":"Kanda, Naoyuki"},{"first_name":"Takuya","last_name":"Yoshioka","full_name":"Yoshioka, Takuya"},{"first_name":"Neville","full_name":"Ryant, Neville","last_name":"Ryant"}],"year":"2020","status":"public","date_created":"2021-12-03T12:13:01Z","user_id":"40767","citation":{"mla":"Watanabe, Shinji, et al. “CHiME-6 Challenge:Tackling Multispeaker Speech Recognition for  Unsegmented Recordings.” <i>ArXiv:2004.09249</i>, 2020.","ama":"Watanabe S, Mandel M, Barker J, et al.
