Interspeech 20202020Compression and quantization is important to neural networks in general and Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems in particular, especially when they operate in real-time on resource-constrained devices. By using fewer number of bits for the model weights, the model size becomes much smaller while inference time is reduced significantly, with the cost of degraded performance. Such degradation can be
-
Interspeech 20202020Domain-agnostic Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems suffer from the issue of mistranscribing domain-specific words, which leads to failures in downstream tasks. In this paper, we present a post-editing ASR error correction method using the Transformer model for entity mention correction and retrieval. Specifically, we propose a novel augmented variant of the Transformer model that encodes both the

Interspeech 20202020We consider the problem of spoken language understanding (SLU) of extracting natural language intents and associated slot arguments or named entities from speech that is primarily directed at voice assistants. Such a system subsumes both automatic speech recognition (ASR) as well as natural language understanding (NLU). An end-to-end joint SLU model can be built to a required specification opening up the

AMTA 20202020We present Sockeye 2, a modernized and streamlined version of the Sockeye neural machine translation (NMT) toolkit. New features include a simplified code base through the use of MXNet’s Gluon API, a focus on state of the art model architectures, distributed mixed precision training, and efficient CPU decoding with 8-bit quantization. These improvements result in faster training and inference, higher automatic

Interspeech 20202020Neural network applications generally benefit from larger-sized models, but for current speech enhancement models, larger scale networks often suffer from decreased robustness to the variety of real-world use cases beyond what is encountered in training data. We introduce several innovations that lead to better large neural networks for speech enhancement. The novel PoCoNet architecture is a convolutional
