Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems have progressed significantly in their performance on adult speech data; however, transcribing child speech remains challenging due to the acoustic differences in the characteristics of child and…

Conformer models maintain a large number of internal states, the vast majority of which are associated with self-attention layers. With limited memory bandwidth, reading these from memory at each inference step can slow down inference. In…

In speech language modeling, two architectures dominate the frontier: the Transformer and the Conformer. However, it remains unknown whether their comparable performance stems from convergent processing strategies or distinct architectural…
