Towards Stress-Aware Sentence-Level Filipino G2P With Weakly-Supervised ByT5 Fine-Tuning

Excerpt

arXiv:2609.09974v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Grapheme-to-phoneme conversion (G2P) refers to the task of converting a sequence of graphemes to a corresponding sequence of phonemes. While Filipino G2P is fairly straightforward due to its shallow orthography, the inclusion of prosodic features such as stress adds a layer of complexity that requires sentence-level context instead of single-word inputs. However, sentence-level data for Filipino typically do not include phoneme transcriptions, posi
