The Gift of Feedback: Improving ASR Model Quality by Learning from User Corrections through Federated Learning

Lillian Zhou, Yuxin Ding, Mingqing Chen +5

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) models are typically trained on large datasets of transcribed speech. As language evolves and new terms come into use, these models can become ou…

Partial Variable Training for Efficient On-Device Federated Learning

Tien-Ju Yang, Dhruv Guliani, Françoise Beaufays +1

This paper aims to address the major challenges of Federated Learning (FL) on edge devices: limited memory and expensive communication. We propose a novel method, called Partial Va…

Enabling On-Device Training of Speech Recognition Models with Federated Dropout

Dhruv Guliani, Lillian Zhou, Changwan Ryu +5

Federated learning can be used to train machine learning models on the edge on local data that never leave devices, providing privacy by default. This presents a challenge pertaini…

Exploring Heterogeneous Characteristics of Layers in ASR Models for More Efficient Training

Lillian Zhou, Dhruv Guliani, Andreas Kabel +2

Transformer-based architectures have been the subject of research aimed at understanding their overparameterization and the non-uniform importance of their layers. Applying these a…

Training Speech Recognition Models with Federated Learning: A Quality/Cost Framework

Dhruv Guliani, Francoise Beaufays, Giovanni Motta

We propose using federated learning, a decentralized on-device learning paradigm, to train speech recognition models. By performing epochs of training on a per-user basis, federate…

Personalization of End-to-end Speech Recognition On Mobile Devices For Named Entities

Khe Chai Sim, Françoise Beaufays, Arnaud Benard +9

We study the effectiveness of several techniques to personalize end-to-end speech models and improve the recognition of proper names relevant to the user. These techniques differ i…
