Data-Driven Adaptive Simultaneous Machine Translation

Guangxu Xun, Mingbo Ma, Yuchen Bian +7

In simultaneous translation (SimulMT), the most widely used strategy is the wait-k policy thanks to its simplicity and effectiveness in balancing translation quality and latency. H…

Exploiting a Zoo of Checkpoints for Unseen Tasks

Jiaji Huang, Qiang Qiu, Kenneth Church

There are so many models in the literature that it is difficult for practitioners to decide which combinations are likely to be effective for a new task. This paper attempts to add…

Automatic recognition of suprasegmentals in speech

Jiahong Yuan, Neville Ryant, Xingyu Cai +2

This study reports our efforts to improve automatic recognition of suprasegmentals by fine-tuning wav2vec 2.0 with CTC, a method that has been successful in automatic speech recogn…

The Role of Phonetic Units in Speech Emotion Recognition

Jiahong Yuan, Xingyu Cai, Renjie Zheng +2

We propose a method for emotion recognition through emotiondependent speech recognition using Wav2vec 2.0. Our method achieved a significant improvement over most previously report…

Decoupling recognition and transcription in Mandarin ASR

Jiahong Yuan, Xingyu Cai, Dongji Gao +3

Much of the recent literature on automatic speech recognition (ASR) is taking an end-to-end approach. Unlike English where the writing system is closely related to sound, Chinese c…

Better than BERT but Worse than Baseline

Boxiang Liu, Jiaji Huang, Xingyu Cai +1

This paper compares BERT-SQuAD and Ab3P on the Abbreviation Definition Identification (ADI) task. ADI inputs a text and outputs short forms (abbreviations/acronyms) and long forms…

The Third DIHARD Diarization Challenge

Neville Ryant, Prachi Singh, Venkat Krishnamohan +6

DIHARD III was the third in a series of speaker diarization challenges intended to improve the robustness of diarization systems to variability in recording equipment, noise condit…

Exploring Long Tail Visual Relationship Recognition with Large Vocabulary

Sherif Abdelkarim, Aniket Agarwal, Panos Achlioptas +5

Several approaches have been proposed in recent literature to alleviate the long-tail problem, mainly in object classification tasks. In this paper, we make the first large-scale s…

Language Modeling at Scale

Mostofa Patwary, Milind Chabbi, Heewoo Jun +3

We show how Zipf's Law can be used to scale up language modeling (LM) to take advantage of more training data and more GPUs. LM plays a key role in many important natural language…
