| Challenge: | State-of-the-art automatic speech recognition systems exhibit disparate performance on varying speech accents. |
| Approach: | They propose to use submodular mutual information to find the most informative set of utterances matching a target accent within a fixed budget. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model is 3-5 times more label-efficient on the Indic-TTS and L2 datasets than other methods. |
