How Far Can the Gemma 4 Speech Encoder Go Without Changing Its Weights? Saudi and Gulf Arabic Speech Recognition with a Frozen and an Adapter-Augmented Encoder

arXiv:2610.28673v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study the 305M-parameter audio encoder shared by Gemma 4 and EmbeddingGemma 2 (identical except for its final projection) for Saudi and Gulf Arabic speech recognition, without changing any of its weights. A frozen system trains only a 22.6M-paramet…
