This study presents a novel approach for knowledge distillation (KD) from a BERT teacher model to an automatic speech recognition (ASR) model using intermediate layers. To distil the teacher's knowledge, we use an attention decoder that…

Sequential recommendation aims to capture users' dynamic interest and predicts the next item of users' preference. Most sequential recommendation methods use a deep neural network as sequence encoder to generate user and item…

This paper presents a novel knowledge distillation based model compression framework consisting of a student ensemble. It enables distillation of simultaneously learnt ensemble knowledge onto each of the compressed student models. Each…

Knowledge distillation (KD) is used to enhance automatic speaker verification performance by ensuring consistency between large teacher networks and lightweight student networks at the embedding level or label level. However, the…

Large-scale contrastive learning models can learn very informative sentence embeddings, but are hard to serve online due to the huge model size. Therefore, they often play the role of "teacher", transferring abilities to small "student"…

Much research effort is being applied to the task of compressing the knowledge of self-supervised models, which are powerful, yet large and memory consuming. In this work, we show that the original method of knowledge distillation (and its…

Advances in self-distillation have shown that when knowledge is distilled from a teacher to a student using the same deep learning (DL) architecture, the student performance can surpass the teacher particularly when the network is…

In this paper, we propose Stochastic Knowledge Distillation (SKD) to obtain compact BERT-style language model dubbed SKDBERT. In each iteration, SKD samples a teacher model from a pre-defined teacher ensemble, which consists of multiple…

Sound event detection (SED) is essential for recognizing specific sounds and their temporal locations within acoustic signals. This becomes challenging particularly for on-device applications, where computational resources are limited. To…

Ensemble approaches are commonly used techniques to improving a system by combining multiple model predictions. Additionally these schemes allow the uncertainty, as well as the source of the uncertainty, to be derived for the prediction.…

Knowledge distillation (KD) improves the performance of a low-complexity student model with the help of a more powerful teacher. The teacher in KD is a black-box model, imparting knowledge to the student only through its predictions. This…

Self-supervised speech pre-training enables deep neural network models to capture meaningful and disentangled factors from raw waveform signals. The learned universal speech representations can then be used across numerous downstream tasks.…

In single-channel speech enhancement, methods based on full-band spectral features have been widely studied. However, only a few methods pay attention to non-full-band spectral features. In this paper, we explore a knowledge distillation…

Knowledge distillation aims at transferring the knowledge from a large teacher model to a small student model with great improvements of the performance of the student model. Therefore, the student network can replace the teacher network to…
