ANALYSIS AND CLASSIFICATION OF THE RUSYN LANGUAGE USING THE OPENAI WHISPER ASR MODELThe paper presents a linguistic analysis of the Rusyn language, focusing on its complex and dynamic aspects, such as pronunciation and individual, regional, and historical variations. The study employed a neural network based on the OpenAI Whisper automatic speech recognition (ASR) model. While trained on data from a majority of official state languages, the model lacked direct training on Rusyn language samples due to its localized and minority/ethnic nature. Consequently, speech samples were classified using the closest available language labels, enabling the identification of similarities between Rusyn and other Slavic languages. The study encompassed a diverse range of speakers across gender, age, and location (Poland, Ukraine, Slovakia, Serbia), revealing significant similarities to the dominant languages in these respective countries. Furthermore, the research highlights correlations between the identified linguistic similarities and the age of the speakers.
