Abstract
The study evaluated two speech recognition systems, Wav2vec2 and Whisper, for potential biases for Dutch speakers.Results obtained by evaluating on the JASMIN corpus revealed biases against non-native speakers, children, and the elderly,with (slightly) better performance for women. The study emphasizes the need for ASR systems to handle variations in speakingin order to reach equal performance among all users.
