MADGF: Multi-Agent Data Generation Framework

Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems predominantly cater to monolingual inputs and struggle with the complexity introduced by mixed language audio. In this paper, we present a novel Multi-Agent Data Generation Framework (MADGF) to address this challenge. We finetune the open-source multilingual ASR model, Whisper, utilizing our generated Mixed Cantonese and English (MCE) audio dataset, Which achieved an impressive Mix Error Rate (MER) of 14.28%, 35.13% lower than the original model. Meanwhile, single language recognition ability is not affected, 12.6% Character Error Rate (CER) in Common voice zh-HK, 14.8% Word Error Rate (WER) in Common voice en. However, these metrics do not encompass all aspects critical to the ASR systems. Hence, we propose a novel evaluation metric called Fidelity to the Original Audio, Accuracy, and Latency (FAL).
