A Calculus-Based Framework for Determining Vocabulary Size in End-to-End ASR

Sunil Kumar Kopparapu

In hybrid automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems, the vocabulary size is unambiguous, typically determined by the number of phones, bi-phones, or tri-phones present in the lang…

Probing Human Articulatory Constraints in End-to-End TTS with Reverse and Mismatched Speech-Text Directions

Parth Khadse, Sunil Kumar Kopparapu

An end-to-end (e2e) text-to-speech (TTS) system is a deep architecture that learns to associate a text string with acoustic speech patterns from a curated dataset. It is expected t…
