Sub-8-bit quantization for on-device speech recognition: a regularization-free approach
Kai Zhen, Martin Radfar, Hieu Duy Nguyen +3
For on-device automatic speech recognition (ASR), quantization aware training (QAT) is ubiquitous to achieve the trade-off between model predictive performance and efficiency. Amon…
ConvRNN-T: Convolutional Augmented Recurrent Neural Network Transducers for Streaming Speech Recognition
Martin Radfar, Rohit Barnwal, Rupak Vignesh Swaminathan +4
The recurrent neural network transducer (RNN-T) is a prominent streaming end-to-end (E2E) ASR technology. In RNN-T, the acoustic encoder commonly consists of stacks of LSTMs. Very…
Compute Cost Amortized Transformer for Streaming ASR
Yi Xie, Jonathan Macoskey, Martin Radfar +5
We present a streaming, Transformer-based end-to-end automatic speech recognition (ASR) architecture which achieves efficient neural inference through compute cost amortization. Ou…
Sub-8-Bit Quantization Aware Training for 8-Bit Neural Network Accelerator with On-Device Speech Recognition
Kai Zhen, Hieu Duy Nguyen, Raviteja Chinta +4
We present a novel sub-8-bit quantization-aware training (S8BQAT) scheme for 8-bit neural network accelerators. Our method is inspired from Lloyd-Max compression theory with practi…
Contextual Adapters for Personalized Speech Recognition in Neural Transducers
Kanthashree Mysore Sathyendra, Thejaswi Muniyappa, Feng-Ju Chang +5
Personal rare word recognition in end-to-end Automatic Speech Recognition (E2E ASR) models is a challenge due to the lack of training data. A standard way to address this issue is…
A neural prosody encoder for end-ro-end dialogue act classification
Kai Wei, Dillon Knox, Martin Radfar +6
Dialogue act classification (DAC) is a critical task for spoken language understanding in dialogue systems. Prosodic features such as energy and pitch have been shown to be useful…
