Recent advances in deep learning and automatic speech recognition have improved the accuracy of end-to-end speech recognition systems, but recognition of personal content such as contact names remains a challenge. In this work, we describe our personalization solution for an end-to-end speech recogn…
Federated Learning (FL) is a technique to train models on distributed edge devices with local data samples. Differential Privacy (DP) can be applied with FL to provide a formal privacy guarantee for sensitive data on device. Our goal is to train a large neural network language model (NNLM) on comput…
Undulatory fin motions in fish-like robots are typically created using intricate arrays of servo motors. Motor arrays offer impressive versatility in terms of kinematics, but their complexity leads to constraints on size, hydrodynamic force production, and power consumption, particularly when studyi…
Very deep CNNs achieve state-of-the-art results in both computer vision and speech recognition, but are difficult to train. The most popular way to train very deep CNNs is to use shortcut connections (SC) together with batch normalization (BN). Inspired by Self-Normalizing Neural Networks, we propos…
We propose a method to reduce false voice triggers of a speech-enabled personal assistant by post-processing the hypothesis lattice of a server-side large-vocabulary continuous speech recognizer (LVCSR) via a neural network. We first discuss how an estimate of the posterior probability of the trigge…
