Streaming Speech-to-Text Translation with a SpeechLLM

Titouan Parcollet, Shucong Zhang, Xianrui Zheng +1

Normally, a system that translates speech into text consists of separate modules for speech recognition and text-to-text translation. Combining those tasks into a SpeechLLM promise…

DP-LAC: Lightweight Adaptive Clipping for Differentially Private Federated Fine-tuning of Language Models

Haaris Mehmood, Jie Xu, Karthikeyan Saravanan +2

Federated learning (FL) enables the collaborative training of large-scale language models (LLMs) across edge devices while keeping user data on-device. However, FL still exposes se…

Robust Unsupervised Adaptation of a Speech Recogniser Using Entropy Minimisation and Speaker Codes

Rogier C. van Dalen, Shucong Zhang, Titouan Parcollet +1

Speech recognisers usually perform optimally only in a specific environment and need to be adapted to work well in another. For adaptation to a new speaker, there is often too litt…

Evaluation of LLMs in Speech is Often Flawed: Test Set Contamination in Large Language Models for Speech Recognition

Yuan Tseng, Titouan Parcollet, Rogier van Dalen +2

Recent work suggests that large language models (LLMs) can improve performance of speech tasks compared to existing systems. To support their claims, results on LibriSpeech and Com…

Benchmarking Rotary Position Embeddings for Automatic Speech Recognition

Shucong Zhang, Titouan Parcollet, Rogier van Dalen +1

Self-attention relies on positional embeddings to encode input order. Relative Position (RelPos) embeddings are widely used in Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR). However, RelPos h…

Linear Time Complexity Conformers with SummaryMixing for Streaming Speech Recognition

Titouan Parcollet, Rogier van Dalen, Shucong Zhang +1

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) with an encoder equipped with self-attention, whether streaming or non-streaming, takes quadratic time in the length of the speech utterance. Thi…

Linear-Complexity Self-Supervised Learning for Speech Processing

Shucong Zhang, Titouan Parcollet, Rogier van Dalen +1

Self-supervised learning (SSL) models usually require weeks of pre-training with dozens of high-end GPUs. These models typically have a multi-headed self-attention (MHSA) context e…

DP-DyLoRA: Fine-Tuning Transformer-Based Models On-Device under Differentially Private Federated Learning using Dynamic Low-Rank Adaptation

Jie Xu, Karthikeyan Saravanan, Rogier van Dalen +3

Federated learning (FL) allows clients to collaboratively train a global model without sharing their local data with a server. However, clients' contributions to the server can sti…

pfl-research: simulation framework for accelerating research in Private Federated Learning

Filip Granqvist, Congzheng Song, Áine Cahill +7

Federated learning (FL) is an emerging machine learning (ML) training paradigm where clients own their data and collaborate to train a global model, without revealing any data to t…

Globally Normalising the Transducer for Streaming Speech Recognition

Rogier van Dalen

The Transducer (e.g. RNN-Transducer or Conformer-Transducer) generates an output label sequence as it traverses the input sequence. It is straightforward to use in streaming mode,…

SummaryMixing: A Linear-Complexity Alternative to Self-Attention for Speech Recognition and Understanding

Titouan Parcollet, Rogier van Dalen, Shucong Zhang +1

Modern speech processing systems rely on self-attention. Unfortunately, token mixing with self-attention takes quadratic time in the length of the speech utterance, slowing down in…
