A Study on Regularization-Based Continual Learning Methods for Indic ASR
Gokul Adethya T, S. Jaya Nirmala
Indias linguistic diversity poses significant challenges for developing inclusive Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems. Traditional multilingual models, which require simulta…
Mitigating Extrinsic Gender Bias for Bangla Classification Tasks
Sajib Kumar Saha Joy, Arman Hassan Mahy, Meherin Sultana +4
In this study, we investigate extrinsic gender bias in Bangla pretrained language models, a largely underexplored area in low-resource languages. To assess this bias, we construct…
Practical Conformer: Optimizing size, speed and flops of Conformer for on-Device and cloud ASR
Rami Botros, Anmol Gulati, Tara N. Sainath +5
Conformer models maintain a large number of internal states, the vast majority of which are associated with self-attention layers. With limited memory bandwidth, reading these from…
Self-supervised Learning with Random-projection Quantizer for Speech Recognition
Chung-Cheng Chiu, James Qin, Yu Zhang +2
We present a simple and effective self-supervised learning approach for speech recognition. The approach learns a model to predict the masked speech signals, in the form of discret…
Co-training Transformer with Videos and Images Improves Action Recognition
Bowen Zhang, Jiahui Yu, Christopher Fifty +4
In learning action recognition, models are typically pre-trained on object recognition with images, such as ImageNet, and later fine-tuned on target action recognition with videos.…
BigSSL: Exploring the Frontier of Large-Scale Semi-Supervised Learning for Automatic Speech Recognition
Yu Zhang, Daniel S. Park, Wei Han +23
We summarize the results of a host of efforts using giant automatic speech recognition (ASR) models pre-trained using large, diverse unlabeled datasets containing approximately a m…
A Better and Faster End-to-End Model for Streaming ASR
Bo Li, Anmol Gulati, Jiahui Yu +12
End-to-end (E2E) models have shown to outperform state-of-the-art conventional models for streaming speech recognition [1] across many dimensions, including quality (as measured by…
Cascaded encoders for unifying streaming and non-streaming ASR
Arun Narayanan, Tara N. Sainath, Ruoming Pang +5
End-to-end (E2E) automatic speech recognition (ASR) models, by now, have shown competitive performance on several benchmarks. These models are structured to either operate in strea…
FastEmit: Low-latency Streaming ASR with Sequence-level Emission Regularization
Jiahui Yu, Chung-Cheng Chiu, Bo Li +8
Streaming automatic speech recognition (ASR) aims to emit each hypothesized word as quickly and accurately as possible. However, emitting fast without degrading quality, as measure…
Dual-mode ASR: Unify and Improve Streaming ASR with Full-context Modeling
Jiahui Yu, Wei Han, Anmol Gulati +5
Streaming automatic speech recognition (ASR) aims to emit each hypothesized word as quickly and accurately as possible, while full-context ASR waits for the completion of a full sp…
