Most end-to-end (E2E) speech recognition models are composed of encoder and decoder blocks that perform acoustic and language modeling functions. Pretrained large language models (LLMs) have the potential to improve the performance of E2E ASR. However, integrating a pretrained language model into an…
Error correction in automatic speech recognition (ASR) aims to correct those incorrect words in sentences generated by ASR models. Since recent ASR models usually have low word error rate (WER), to avoid affecting originally correct tokens, error correction models should only modify incorrect words,…
With the advent of recurrent neural network transducer (RNN-T) model, the performance of keyword spotting (KWS) systems has greatly improved. However, the KWS systems, employed for wake-word detection, still rely on the availability of keyword specific training data for achieving reasonable performa…
Automatic speech recognition systems suffer from accuracy degradation when code-switching (multiple languages are spoken in a single utterance) is encountered. This is especially common for non-native speakers where there is a mismatch between speech and acoustic model. In this paper, we experiment…
