ICASSP 20212021Audio codecs based on discretized neural autoencoders have recently been developed and shown to provide significantly higher compression levels for comparable quality speech output. However, these models are tightly coupled with speech content, and produce unintended outputs in noisy conditions. Based on VQ-VAE autoencoders with WaveRNN decoders, we develop compressor-enhancer encoders and accompanying

ICASSP 20212021Recent research shows end-to-end ASR systems can recognize overlapped speech from multiple speakers. However, all published works have assumed no latency constraints during inference, which does not hold for most voice assistant interactions. This work focuses on multi-speaker speech recognition based on a recurrent neural network transducer (RNN-T) that has been shown to provide high recognition accuracy

ICASSP 20212021We present a novel online end-to-end neural diarization system, BWEDA-EEND, that processes data incrementally for a variable number of speakers. The system is based on the Encoder-Decoder-Attractor (EDA) architecture of Horiguchi et al., but utilizes the incremental Transformer encoder, attending only to its left contexts and using block-level recurrence in the hidden states to carry information from block

ICASSP 20212021Today, many state-of-the-art automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems apply all-neural models that map audio to word sequences trained end-to-end along one global optimisation criterion in a fully data driven fashion. These models allow high precision ASR for domains and words represented in the training material but have difficulties recognising words that are rarely or not at all represented during

ICASSP 20212021The study of keyword spotting, a subfield within the broader field of speech recognition that centers around identifying individual keywords in speech audio, has gained particular importance in recent years with the rise of personal voice assistants such as Alexa. As voice assistants aim to rapidly expand to support new languages, keywords, and use cases, stakeholders face the issue of limited training
