Continual learning (CL), or domain expansion, recently became a popular topic for automatic speech recognition (ASR) acoustic modeling because practical systems have to be updated frequently in order to work robustly on types of speech not observed during initial training. While sequential adaptatio…
This paper reports on investigations using two techniques for language model text data augmentation for low-resourced automatic speech recognition and keyword search. Lowresourced languages are characterized by limited training materials, which typically results in high out-of-vocabulary (OOV) rates…
This paper presents a method to improve a language model for a limited-resourced language using statistical machine translation from a related language to generate data for the target language. In this work, the machine translation model is trained on a corpus of parallel Mandarin-Cantonese subtitle…
