The construction of an effective good speech recognition system typically requires large amounts of transcribed data, which is expensive to collect. To overcome this problem, many unsupervised pretraining methods have been proposed. Among these methods, Masked Predictive Coding achieved significant…
This paper introduces a new open-sourced Mandarin speech corpus, called DiDiSpeech. It consists of about 800 hours of speech data at 48kHz sampling rate from 6000 speakers and the corresponding texts. All speech data in the corpus is recorded in quiet environment and is suitable for various speech p…
Recently, a variety of acoustic tasks and related applications arised. For many acoustic tasks, the labeled data size may be limited. To handle this problem, we propose an unsupervised pre-training method using Transformer based encoder to learn a general and robust high-level representation for all…
