Single channel speech separation has experienced great progress in the last few years. However, training neural speech separation for a large number of speakers (e.g., more than 10 speakers) is out of reach for the current methods, which…

The recently-proposed mixture invariant training (MixIT) is an unsupervised method for training single-channel sound separation models in the sense that it does not require ground-truth isolated reference sources. In this paper, we…

Speech separation has been successfully applied as a frontend processing module of conversation transcription systems thanks to its ability to handle overlapped speech and its flexibility to combine with downstream tasks such as automatic…

We present a bidirectional unsupervised model pre-training (UPT) method and apply it to children's automatic speech recognition (ASR). An obstacle to improving child ASR is the scarcity of child speech databases. A common approach to…

Universal sound separation consists of separating mixes with arbitrary sounds of different types, and permutation invariant training (PIT) is used to train source agnostic models that do so. In this work, we complement PIT with adversarial…

Pre-trained Transformer-based speech models have shown striking performance when fine-tuned on various downstream tasks such as automatic speech recognition and spoken language identification (SLID). However, the problem of domain mismatch…

Speech separation has been studied in time domain because of lower latency and higher performance compared to time-frequency domain. The masking-based method has been mostly used in time domain, and the other common method (mapping-based)…

Source separation can improve automatic speech recognition (ASR) under multi-party meeting scenarios by extracting single-speaker signals from overlapped speech. Despite the success of self-supervised learning models in single-channel…

In a pipeline speech translation system, automatic speech recognition (ASR) system will transmit errors in recognition to the downstream machine translation (MT) system. A standard machine translation system is usually trained on parallel…

In the domain of air traffic control (ATC) systems, efforts to train a practical automatic speech recognition (ASR) model always faces the problem of small training samples since the collection and annotation of speech samples are expert-…

The Streaming Unmixing and Recognition Transducer (SURT) model was proposed recently as an end-to-end approach for continuous, streaming, multi-talker speech recognition (ASR). Despite impressive results on multi-turn meetings, SURT has…

Speech separation has been well developed, with the very successful permutation invariant training (PIT) approach, although the frequent label assignment switching happening during PIT training remains to be a problem when better…

Since the first speech recognition systems were built more than 30 years ago, improvement in voice technology has enabled applications such as smart assistants and automated customer support. However, conversation intelligence of the future…

Training deep neural networks for automatic speech recognition (ASR) requires large amounts of transcribed speech. This becomes a bottleneck for training robust models for accented speech which typically contains high variability in…

Automatic transcription of meetings requires handling of overlapped speech, which calls for continuous speech separation (CSS) systems. The uPIT criterion was proposed for utterance-level separation with neural networks and introduces the…

In this paper, we introduce a novel semi-supervised learning framework for end-to-end speech separation. The proposed method first uses mixtures of unseparated sources and the mixture invariant training (MixIT) criterion to train a teacher…

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) has reached a level of accuracy in recent years, that even outperforms humans in transcribing speech to text. Nevertheless, all current ASR approaches show a certain weakness against ambient noise. To…

We propose a novel adversarial multi-task learning scheme, aiming at actively curtailing the inter-talker feature variability while maximizing its senone discriminability so as to enhance the performance of a deep neural network (DNN) based…

We propose an end-to-end joint optimization framework of a multi-channel neural speech extraction and deep acoustic model without mel-filterbank (FBANK) extraction for overlapped speech recognition. First, based on a multi-channel…

Noise robustness is critical when applying automatic speech recognition (ASR) in real-world scenarios. One solution involves the used of speech enhancement (SE) models as the front end of ASR. However, neural network-based (NN-based) SE…
