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…
Scaling Up Deliberation for Multilingual ASR
Ke Hu, Bo Li, Tara N. Sainath
Multilingual end-to-end automatic speech recognition models are attractive due to its simplicity in training and deployment. Recent work on large-scale training of such models has…
Scaling End-to-End Models for Large-Scale Multilingual ASR
Bo Li, Ruoming Pang, Tara N. Sainath +7
Building ASR models across many languages is a challenging multi-task learning problem due to large variations and heavily unbalanced data. Existing work has shown positive transfe…
A Streaming On-Device End-to-End Model Surpassing Server-Side Conventional Model Quality and Latency
Tara N. Sainath, Yanzhang He, Bo Li +26
Thus far, end-to-end (E2E) models have not been shown to outperform state-of-the-art conventional models with respect to both quality, i.e., word error rate (WER), and latency, i.e…
Streaming End-to-end Speech Recognition For Mobile Devices
Yanzhang He, Tara N. Sainath, Rohit Prabhavalkar +17
End-to-end (E2E) models, which directly predict output character sequences given input speech, are good candidates for on-device speech recognition. E2E models, however, present nu…
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-…
