Cross-Attention is all you need: Real-Time Streaming Transformers for Personalised Speech Enhancement

Shucong Zhang, Malcolm Chadwick, Alberto Gil C. P. Ramos +1

Personalised speech enhancement (PSE), which extracts only the speech of a target user and removes everything else from a recorded audio clip, can potentially improve users' experi…

Transformer-based Streaming ASR with Cumulative Attention

Mohan Li, Shucong Zhang, Catalin Zorila +1

In this paper, we propose an online attention mechanism, known as cumulative attention (CA), for streaming Transformer-based automatic speech recognition (ASR). Inspired by monoton…

Train your classifier first: Cascade Neural Networks Training from upper layers to lower layers

Shucong Zhang, Cong-Thanh Do, Rama Doddipatla +3

Although the lower layers of a deep neural network learn features which are transferable across datasets, these layers are not transferable within the same dataset. That is, in gen…
