Accelerating RNN-T Training and Inference Using CTC guidance

Yongqiang Wang, Zhehuai Chen, Chengjian Zheng +3

We propose a novel method to accelerate training and inference process of recurrent neural network transducer (RNN-T) based on the guidance from a co-trained connectionist temporal…

Maestro-U: Leveraging joint speech-text representation learning for zero supervised speech ASR

Zhehuai Chen, Ankur Bapna, Andrew Rosenberg +4

Training state-of-the-art Automated Speech Recognition (ASR) models typically requires a substantial amount of transcribed speech. In this work, we demonstrate that a modality-matc…

JOIST: A Joint Speech and Text Streaming Model For ASR

Tara N. Sainath, Rohit Prabhavalkar, Ankur Bapna +6

We present JOIST, an algorithm to train a streaming, cascaded, encoder end-to-end (E2E) model with both speech-text paired inputs, and text-only unpaired inputs. Unlike previous wo…
