This paper investigates the under-explored area of low-rank weight training for large-scale Conformer-based speech recognition models from scratch. Our study demonstrates the viability of this training paradigm for such models, yielding several notable findings. Firstly, we discover that applying a…
Audio-visual speech recognition has received a lot of attention due to its robustness against acoustic noise. Recently, the performance of automatic, visual, and audio-visual speech recognition (ASR, VSR, and AV-ASR, respectively) has been substantially improved, mainly due to the use of larger mode…
Audio-Visual Speech Recognition (AVSR) faces the difficult task of exploiting acoustic and visual cues simultaneously. Augmenting speech with the visual channel creates its own challenges, e.g. every person has unique mouth movements, making the generalization of visual models very difficult. This f…
