Human language is a combination of elemental languages/domains/styles that change across and sometimes within discourses. Language models, which play a crucial role in speech recognizers and machine translation systems, are particularly…

This paper investigates several aspects of training a RNN (recurrent neural network) that impact the objective and subjective quality of enhanced speech for real-time single-channel speech enhancement. Specifically, we focus on a RNN that…

This paper presents an end-to-end model designed to improve automatic speech recognition (ASR) for a particular speaker in a crowded, noisy environment. The model utilizes a single-channel speech enhancement module that isolates the…

In recent decades, many studies have suggested that phase information is crucial for speech enhancement (SE), and time-domain single-channel speech enhancement techniques have shown promise in noise suppression and robust automatic speech…

This paper enhances dysarthric and dysphonic speech recognition by fine-tuning pretrained automatic speech recognition (ASR) models on the 2023-10-05 data package of the Speech Accessibility Project (SAP), which contains the speech of 253…

A previous signal processing algorithm that aimed to enhance spectral changes (SCE) over time showed benefit for hearing-impaired (HI) listeners to recognize speech in background noise. In this work, the previous SCE was manipulated to…

In realistic environments, speech is usually interfered by various noise and reverberation, which dramatically degrades the performance of automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems. To alleviate this issue, the commonest way is to use a…

Post-editing in Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) entails automatically correcting common and systematic errors produced by the ASR system. The outputs of an ASR system are largely prone to phonetic and spelling errors. In this paper, we…

Single-channel speech enhancement is utilized in various tasks to mitigate the effect of interfering signals. Conventionally, to ensure the speech enhancement performs optimally, the speech enhancement has needed to be tuned for each task.…

The careful construction of audio representations has become a dominant feature in the design of approaches to many speech tasks. Increasingly, such approaches have emphasized "disentanglement", where a representation contains only parts of…

Self-supervised learning (SSL) has allowed substantial progress in Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) performance in low-resource settings. In this context, it has been demonstrated that larger self-supervised feature extractors are crucial…

The demand for fast and accurate incremental speech recognition increases as the applications of automatic speech recognition (ASR) proliferate. Incremental speech recognizers output chunks of partially recognized words while the user is…

Recently, the end-to-end training approach for multi-channel ASR has shown its effectiveness, which usually consists of a beamforming front-end and a recognition back-end. However, the end-to-end training becomes more difficult due to the…

The performance of automatic speech recognition systems(ASR) degrades in the presence of noisy speech. This paper demonstrates that using electroencephalography (EEG) can help automatic speech recognition systems overcome performance loss…

Although great progresses have been made in automatic speech recognition (ASR), significant performance degradation is still observed when recognizing multi-talker mixed speech. In this paper, we propose and evaluate several architectures…

Speech Recognition (ASR) due to phoneme distortions and high variability. While self-supervised ASR models like Wav2Vec, HuBERT, and Whisper have shown promise, their effectiveness in dysarthric speech remains unclear. This study…

Automated speaking assessment (ASA) typically involves automatic speech recognition (ASR) and hand-crafted feature extraction from the ASR transcript of a learner's speech. Recently, self-supervised learning (SSL) has shown stellar…

Performance of learning based Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) is susceptible to noise, especially when it is introduced in the testing data while not presented in the training data. This work focuses on a feature enhancement for noise…

Speech accents pose a significant challenge to state-of-the-art automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems. Degradation in performance across underrepresented accents is a severe deterrent to the inclusive adoption of ASR. In this work, we…

Accurately finding the wrong words in the automatic speech recognition (ASR) hypothesis and recovering them well-founded is the goal of speech error correction. In this paper, we propose a non-autoregressive speech error correction method.…
