Dialog Act Guided Contextual Adapter for Personalized Speech Recognition

Feng-Ju Chang, Thejaswi Muniyappa, Kanthashree Mysore Sathyendra, Kai Wei, Grant P. Strimel, Ross McGowan
ICASSP 2023accepted

Personalization in multi-turn dialogs has been a long standing challenge for end-to-end automatic speech recognition (E2E ASR) models. Recent work on contextual adapters has tackled rare word recognition using user catalogs. This adaptation, however, does not incorporate an important cue, the dialog…

Dual-Attention Neural Transducers for Efficient Wake Word Spotting in Speech Recognition

Saumya Y. Sahai, Jing Liu, Thejaswi Muniyappa, Kanthashree Mysore Sathyendra, Anastasios Alexandridis, Grant P. Strimel +5
ICASSP 2023accepted

We present dual-attention neural biasing, an architecture designed to boost Wake Words (WW) recognition and improve inference time latency on speech recognition tasks. This architecture enables a dynamic switch for its runtime compute paths by exploiting WW spotting to select which branch of its att…

Contextual Adapters for Personalized Speech Recognition in Neural Transducers

Kanthashree Mysore Sathyendra, Thejaswi Muniyappa, Feng-Ju Chang, Jing Liu, Jinru Su, Grant P. Strimel +2
ICASSP 2022accepted

Personal rare word recognition in end-to-end Automatic Speech Recognition (E2E ASR) models is a challenge due to the lack of training data. A standard way to address this issue is with shallow fusion methods at inference time. However, due to their dependence on external language models and the dete…
