An analysis of incorporating an external language model into a sequence-to-sequence model

Anjuli Kannan, Yonghui Wu, Patrick Nguyen +3

Attention-based sequence-to-sequence models for automatic speech recognition jointly train an acoustic model, language model, and alignment mechanism. Thus, the language model comp…

No Need for a Lexicon? Evaluating the Value of the Pronunciation Lexica in End-to-End Models

Tara N. Sainath, Rohit Prabhavalkar, Shankar Kumar +9

For decades, context-dependent phonemes have been the dominant sub-word unit for conventional acoustic modeling systems. This status quo has begun to be challenged recently by end-…

Minimum Word Error Rate Training for Attention-based Sequence-to-Sequence Models

Rohit Prabhavalkar, Tara N. Sainath, Yonghui Wu +4

Sequence-to-sequence models, such as attention-based models in automatic speech recognition (ASR), are typically trained to optimize the cross-entropy criterion which corresponds t…

Adversarial Evaluation of Dialogue Models

Anjuli Kannan, Oriol Vinyals

The recent application of RNN encoder-decoder models has resulted in substantial progress in fully data-driven dialogue systems, but evaluation remains a challenge. An adversarial…
