In this paper, we introduce a high-quality and large-scale benchmark dataset for English-Vietnamese speech translation with 508 audio hours, consisting of 331K triplets of (sentencelengthed audio, English source transcript sentence, Vietnamese target subtitle sentence).We also conduct empirical experiments using strong baselines and find that the traditional "Cascaded" approach still outperforms the modern "End-to-End" approach.To the best of our knowledge, this is the first largescale English-Vietnamese speech translation study.We hope both our publicly available dataset and study can serve as a starting point for future research and applications on English-Vietnamese speech translation.
