Representation learning has attracted great atten- tion and managed to reach good performances as a pretraining method for downstream tasks or as a first step towards unsu- pervised speech modeling. Yet, little is known about how such methods deal with out-of-domain speech and how could they be adapted in a few shot to new domains. This is important especially for accented speech where one observes a long tail of accents that diverge from the standard ones. We introduce ABX- Accent, a benchmark based on the AESRC dataset that features 10 different accents of English. It includes a small (< 10
