1. Concept of Speech Recognition Speech recognition technology, also known as Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), aims to convert the vocabulary content of human speech into computer-readable input, such as keystrokes, binary codes, or character sequences. In simple terms, speech recognition technology allows intelligent devices to understand human speech. It is a science that involves multiple … Read more
Original link: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1909.06317.pdf Abstract Sequence-to-sequence models are widely used in end-to-end speech processing, such as Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), Speech Translation (ST), and Text-to-Speech (TTS). This paper focuses on a novel sequence-to-sequence model called the Transformer, which has achieved state-of-the-art performance in neural machine translation and other natural language processing applications. We conducted an in-depth … Read more
Illustration by Jay Bendt Written by Wade Roush Translated by Zhao Jianlin Looking back to 2010, Matt Thompson predicted in a commentary for NPR that “in the near future, automatic speech transcription technology will become fast, easy to use, and free.” He referred to that moment as the “speech singularity,” cleverly borrowing from inventor Ray … Read more

Selected from arXiv Authors: Anuroop Sriram et al. Translated by Machine Heart Contributors: Li Yazhou, Li Zenan Baidu recently published a paper proposing the use of Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) to achieve a robust speech recognition system. The authors state that the new framework does not rely on the domain-specific knowledge or simplified assumptions often … Read more
Excerpt from Awni Translation by Machine Heart Contributors:Nurhachu Null,Lu Xue Since the application of deep learning in the field of speech recognition, the word error rate has significantly decreased. However, speech recognition has not yet reached human-level performance and still faces multiple unresolved issues. This article discusses various aspects of the unresolved problems in speech … Read more
