Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) The self-supervised learning (SSL) models are effective for automatic speech recognition (ASR). Due to the huge parameter size, it usually requires about 10 hours of data for finetuning ASR. However, such size of ASR training data is unavailable for some low-resource languages. Moreover, the SSL pre-trained models were originally trained using European languages; they thus might not be well-adapted to other domains or languages. To bare those challenges, We propose a two-step adaptation method: (1) domain adaptation, which uses in-domain multi-lingual datasets to finetune the pre-trained model, and (2) language adaptation, which finetunes the same language datasets but different domains. Then, we investigate the effectiveness of adapting only one hour of target-labeled data for the ASR task. The experiment using the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia dataset shows that first conducting domain adaption and then language adaption is the most effective method for reducing the CER of the baseline by 6.15% and 7.75% of the test and validation sets, respectively.
