Device-Directed Speech Detection: Regularization via Distillation for Weakly-Supervised Models
Vineet Garg, Ognjen Rudovic, Pranay Dighe +5
We address the problem of detecting speech directed to a device that does not contain a specific wake-word. Specifically, we focus on audio coming from a touch-based invocation. Mi…
Streaming on-device detection of device directed speech from voice and touch-based invocation
Ognjen Rudovic, Akanksha Bindal, Vineet Garg +3
When interacting with smart devices such as mobile phones or wearables, the user typically invokes a virtual assistant (VA) by saying a keyword or by pressing a button on the devic…
Streaming Transformer for Hardware Efficient Voice Trigger Detection and False Trigger Mitigation
Vineet Garg, Wonil Chang, Siddharth Sigtia +4
We present a unified and hardware efficient architecture for two stage voice trigger detection (VTD) and false trigger mitigation (FTM) tasks. Two stage VTD systems of voice assist…
Progressive Voice Trigger Detection: Accuracy vs Latency
Siddharth Sigtia, John Bridle, Hywel Richards +3
We present an architecture for voice trigger detection for virtual assistants. The main idea in this work is to exploit information in words that immediately follow the trigger phr…
Hybrid Transformer/CTC Networks for Hardware Efficient Voice Triggering
Saurabh Adya, Vineet Garg, Siddharth Sigtia +2
We consider the design of two-pass voice trigger detection systems. We focus on the networks in the second pass that are used to re-score candidate segments obtained from the first…
