Layer-wise Probing of wav2vec 2.0 and Whisper for Consonant Cluster Reduction in African American English
Layer-wise probing of wav2vec2-base and Whisper-small shows both models distinguish reduced vs. canonical consonant clusters in AAE with high accuracy and retain cues to underlying stops, encoding CCR as gradient variation.
