Alibaba has unveiled Fun-ASR1.5, a major upgrade to its end-to-end speech recognition model. Supporting 30 languages—including Chinese, English, Japanese, Thai, French, and Arabic—the model ensures high-precision recognition across diverse linguistic regions globally.
A core strength of Fun-ASR 1.5 is its seamless code-switching capability. By utilizing a unified training framework, the model automatically detects and transitions between languages in mixed-lingual dialogues without manual configuration. This makes it an effective solution for multinational collaboration, multilingual content creation, and international conferences. In addition, for Chinese outputs, it delivers “ready-to-use” text featuring intelligent punctuation and automated formatting for dates, currencies, and numerals.
Fun-ASR1.5 is powered by a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture, which employs “on-demand” parameter activation to balance massive scale with high computational efficiency. Combined with a multi-stage pre-training strategy, the accuracy of the model has been enhanced.
Fun-ASR 1.5 is now available via API services on the Alibaba Cloud Model Studio platform. Users can also test out the features on ModelScope.
