Improving Mandarin End-to-End Speech Recognition with Word N-gram Language Model
Jinchuan Tian, Jianwei Yu, Chao Weng +2
Despite the rapid progress of end-to-end (E2E) automatic speech recognition (ASR), it has been shown that incorporating external language models (LMs) into the decoding can further…
Self-supervised Dialogue Learning for Spoken Conversational Question Answering
Nuo Chen, Chenyu You, Yuexian Zou
In spoken conversational question answering (SCQA), the answer to the corresponding question is generated by retrieving and then analyzing a fixed spoken document, including multi-…
Layer Reduction: Accelerating Conformer-Based Self-Supervised Model via Layer Consistency
Jinchuan Tian, Rongzhi Gu, Helin Wang +1
Transformer-based self-supervised models are trained as feature extractors and have empowered many downstream speech tasks to achieve state-of-the-art performance. However, both th…
Adaptive Bi-directional Attention: Exploring Multi-Granularity Representations for Machine Reading Comprehension
Nuo Chen, Fenglin Liu, Chenyu You +2
Recently, the attention-enhanced multi-layer encoder, such as Transformer, has been extensively studied in Machine Reading Comprehension (MRC). To predict the answer, it is common…
Towards Data Distillation for End-to-end Spoken Conversational Question Answering
Chenyu You, Nuo Chen, Fenglin Liu +2
In spoken question answering, QA systems are designed to answer questions from contiguous text spans within the related speech transcripts. However, the most natural way that human…
Knowledge Distillation for Improved Accuracy in Spoken Question Answering
Chenyu You, Nuo Chen, Yuexian Zou
Spoken question answering (SQA) is a challenging task that requires the machine to fully understand the complex spoken documents. Automatic speech recognition (ASR) plays a signifi…
