Large-scale Language Model Rescoring on Long-form Data

Tongzhou Chen, Cyril Allauzen, Yinghui Huang +8

In this work, we study the impact of Large-scale Language Models (LLM) on Automated Speech Recognition (ASR) of YouTube videos, which we use as a source for long-form ASR. We demon…

Modular Hybrid Autoregressive Transducer

Zhong Meng, Tongzhou Chen, Rohit Prabhavalkar +10

Text-only adaptation of a transducer model remains challenging for end-to-end speech recognition since the transducer has no clearly separated acoustic model (AM), language model (…

Non-Parallel Voice Conversion for ASR Augmentation

Gary Wang, Andrew Rosenberg, Bhuvana Ramabhadran +4

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) needs to be robust to speaker differences. Voice Conversion (VC) modifies speaker characteristics of input speech. This is an attractive feature…

Analysis of Self-Attention Head Diversity for Conformer-based Automatic Speech Recognition

Kartik Audhkhasi, Yinghui Huang, Bhuvana Ramabhadran +1

Attention layers are an integral part of modern end-to-end automatic speech recognition systems, for instance as part of the Transformer or Conformer architecture. Attention is typ…

Leveraging Unpaired Text Data for Training End-to-End Speech-to-Intent Systems

Yinghui Huang, Hong-Kwang Kuo, Samuel Thomas +5

Training an end-to-end (E2E) neural network speech-to-intent (S2I) system that directly extracts intents from speech requires large amounts of intent-labeled speech data, which is…

End-to-End Spoken Language Understanding Without Full Transcripts

Hong-Kwang J. Kuo, Zoltán Tüske, Samuel Thomas +7

An essential component of spoken language understanding (SLU) is slot filling: representing the meaning of a spoken utterance using semantic entity labels. In this paper, we develo…

Can You Tell Me How to Get Past Sesame Street? Sentence-Level Pretraining Beyond Language Modeling

Alex Wang, Jan Hula, Patrick Xia +13

Natural language understanding has recently seen a surge of progress with the use of sentence encoders like ELMo (Peters et al., 2018a) and BERT (Devlin et al., 2019) which are pre…
