Following the success of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th CHiME challenges we
organize the 6th CHiME Speech Separation and Recognition Challenge (CHiME-6).
The new challenge revisits the previous CHiME-5 challenge and further considers
the problem of distant multi-microphone conversational speech diarization and
recognition in everyday home environments. Speech material is the same as the
previous CHiME-5 recordings except for accurate array synchronization. The
material was elicited using a dinner party scenario with efforts taken to
capture data that is representative of natural conversational speech. This
paper provides a baseline description of the CHiME-6 challenge for both
segmented multispeaker speech recognition (Track 1) and unsegmented
multispeaker speech recognition (Track 2). Of note, Track 2 is the first
challenge activity in the community to tackle an unsegmented multispeaker
speech recognition scenario with a complete set of reproducible open source
baselines providing speech enhancement, speaker diarization, and speech
recognition modules.

本文介绍了基于 CHiME-6 Speech Separation and Recognition Challenge（CHiME-6）的多说话人语音分离和识别问题，该比赛首次尝试了基于无分割的多说话人语音识别方案，并提供了完整的可重现性开源基线方案。
