Recently, there has been a growing interest in end-to-end speech recognition that directly transcribes speech to text without any predefined alignments. In this paper, we explore the use of attention-based encoder-decoder model for Mandarin…

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) has been an essential component of computer assisted language learning (CALL) and computer assisted language testing (CALT) for many years. As this technology continues to develop rapidly, it is important…

This paper presents the work of restoring punctuation for ASR transcripts generated by multilingual ASR systems. The focus languages are English, Mandarin, and Malay which are three of the most popular languages in Singapore. To the best of…

Although automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems achieved significantly improvements in recent years, spoken language recognition error occurs which can be easily spotted by human beings. Various language modeling techniques have been…

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems have advanced significantly with models like Whisper, Conformer, and self-supervised frameworks such as Wav2vec 2.0 and HuBERT. However, developing robust ASR models for young children's speech…

For Mandarin end-to-end (E2E) automatic speech recognition (ASR) tasks, compared to character-based modeling units, pronunciation-based modeling units could improve the sharing of modeling units in model training but meet homophone…

Despite the rapid progress of end-to-end (E2E) automatic speech recognition (ASR), it has been shown that incorporating external language models (LMs) into the decoding can further improve the recognition performance of E2E ASR systems. To…

Recently Convolution-augmented Transformer (Conformer) has shown promising results in Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), outperforming the previous best published Transformer Transducer. In this work, we believe that the output information…

The majority of Chinese characters are monophonic, while a special group of characters, called polyphonic characters, have multiple pronunciations. As a prerequisite of performing speech-related generative tasks, the correct pronunciation…

End-to-end approaches have drawn much attention recently for significantly simplifying the construction of an automatic speech recognition (ASR) system. RNN transducer (RNN-T) is one of the popular end-to-end methods. Previous studies have…

In this article, we present an approach for non native automatic speech recognition (ASR). We propose two methods to adapt existing ASR systems to the non-native accents. The first method is based on the modification of acoustic models…

The performance of voice-controlled systems is usually influenced by accented speech. To make these systems more robust, the frontend accent recognition (AR) technologies have received increased attention in recent years. As accent is a…

Mispronunciation Detection and Diagnosis (MDD) systems, leveraging Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), face two main challenges in Mandarin Chinese: 1) The two-stage models create an information gap between the phoneme or tone…

Joint punctuated and normalized automatic speech recognition (ASR) aims at outputing transcripts with and without punctuation and casing. This task remains challenging due to the lack of paired speech and punctuated text data in most ASR…

End-to-end models have been showing superiority in Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR). At the same time, the capacity of streaming recognition has become a growing requirement for end-to-end models. Following these trends, an…

The rapid advancements in speech technologies over the past two decades have led to human-level performance in tasks like automatic speech recognition (ASR) for fluent speech. However, the efficacy of these models diminishes when applied to…

Code-switching speech recognition has attracted an increasing interest recently, but the need for expert linguistic knowledge has always been a big issue. End-to-end automatic speech recognition (ASR) simplifies the building of ASR systems…

In recent years, studies on automatic speech recognition (ASR) have shown outstanding results that reach human parity on short speech segments. However, there are still difficulties in standardizing the output of ASR such as capitalization…

In this work, we propose a new automatic speech recognition (ASR) system based on feature learning and an end-to-end training procedure for air traffic control (ATC) systems. The proposed model integrates the feature learning block,…

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) has the potential to substantially reduce manual annotation effort in child speech research by generating automatic transcriptions. However, obtaining reliably high-quality ASR transcriptions for child…
