IndicVoices: Towards building an Inclusive Multilingual Speech Dataset for Indian Languages
Tahir Javed, Janki Atul Nawale, Eldho Ittan George +18
We present INDICVOICES, a dataset of natural and spontaneous speech containing a total of 7348 hours of read (9%), extempore (74%) and conversational (17%) audio from 16237 speaker…
High-precision Voice Search Query Correction via Retrievable Speech-text Embedings
Christopher Li, Gary Wang, Kyle Kastner +9
Automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems can suffer from poor recall for various reasons, such as noisy audio, lack of sufficient training data, etc. Previous work has shown that…
Using Text Injection to Improve Recognition of Personal Identifiers in Speech
Yochai Blau, Rohan Agrawal, Lior Madmony +7
Accurate recognition of specific categories, such as persons' names, dates or other identifiers is critical in many Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) applications. As these catego…
Understanding Shared Speech-Text Representations
Gary Wang, Kyle Kastner, Ankur Bapna +4
Recently, a number of approaches to train speech models by incorpo-rating text into end-to-end models have been developed, with Mae-stro advancing state-of-the-art automatic speech…
Google USM: Scaling Automatic Speech Recognition Beyond 100 Languages
Yu Zhang, Wei Han, James Qin +24
We introduce the Universal Speech Model (USM), a single large model that performs automatic speech recognition (ASR) across 100+ languages. This is achieved by pre-training the enc…
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…
MAESTRO: Matched Speech Text Representations through Modality Matching
Zhehuai Chen, Yu Zhang, Andrew Rosenberg +4
We present Maestro, a self-supervised training method to unify representations learnt from speech and text modalities. Self-supervised learning from speech signals aims to learn th…
Injecting Text in Self-Supervised Speech Pretraining
Zhehuai Chen, Yu Zhang, Andrew Rosenberg +3
Self-supervised pretraining for Automated Speech Recognition (ASR) has shown varied degrees of success. In this paper, we propose to jointly learn representations during pretrainin…
End-to-end contextual speech recognition using class language models and a token passing decoder
Zhehuai Chen, Mahaveer Jain, Yongqiang Wang +2
End-to-end modeling (E2E) of automatic speech recognition (ASR) blends all the components of a traditional speech recognition system into a unified model. Although it simplifies tr…
