Inference-Time Target Speaker Unlearning in LLM-Based Automatic Speech Recognition

arXiv:2609.30439v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce target-speaker unlearning ASR (TSU-ASR) task in a fully end-to-end framework for multi-speaker ASR and diarization. Given a multi-speaker utterance and a set of opt-out speakers who do not wish to have their speech transcribed, the task requires an ASR system to transcribe all speakers except the opt-out ones, while still indicating when those speakers are active. As a first step towards tackling this task, we introduce a novel, light-
