AMuSE: Attentive Multilingual Speech Encoding for Zero-Prior ASR

Ashutosh Varshney, Debmalya Chakrabarty, Akshat Jaiswal, Harish Arsikere, Abhinav Jain, Swayambhu Nath Ray +6

ICASSP 2025accepted

Multilingual ASR offers training, deployment and overall performance benefits, but models trained via simple data pooling are known to suffer from cross-lingual interference. Oracle language information (exact-prior) and language-specific parameters are usually leveraged to overcome this, but such a…

An Efficient Self-Learning Framework For Interactive Spoken Dialog Systems

Hitesh Tulsiani, David Chan, Shalini Ghosh, Garima Lalwani, Prabhat Pandey, Ankish Bansal +3

ICML 2024poster

Dialog systems, such as voice assistants, are expected to engage with users in complex, evolving conversations. Unfortunately, traditional automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems deployed in such applications are usually trained to recognize each turn independently and lack the ability to adapt t…

Joint ASR and Language Identification Using RNN-T: An Efficient Approach to Dynamic Language Switching

Surabhi Punjabi, Harish Arsikere, Zeynab Raeesy, Chander Chandak, Nikhil Bhave, Ankish Bansal +10

ICASSP 2021accepted

Conventional dynamic language switching enables seamless multilingual interactions by running several monolingual ASR systems in parallel and triggering the appropriate downstream components using a standalone language identification (LID) service. Since this solution is neither scalable nor cost- a…
