Interspeech 20202020Automatic dubbing aims at replacing all speech contained in a video with speech in a different language, so that the result sounds and looks as natural as the original. Hence, in addition to conveying the same content of an original utterance (which is the typical objective of speech translation), dubbed speech should ideally also match its duration, the lip movements and gestures in the video, timbre,

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
