Abstract We proposed a method using latent regression Bayesian network (LRBN) to extract the shared speech feature for the input of end-to-end speech recognition model. The structure of LRBN is compact and its parameter learning is fast. Compared with Convolutional Neural Network, it has a simpler and understood structure and less parameters to learn. Experimental results show that the advantage of hybrid LRBN/Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory-Connectionist Temporal Classification architecture for Tibetan multi-dialect speech recognition, and demonstrate the LRBN is helpful to differentiate among multiple language speech sets.

Abstract Tibetan language has very limited resource for conventional automatic speech recognition so far. It lacks of enough data, sub-word unit, lexicons and word inventories for some dialects. And speech content recognition and dialect classification have been treated as two independent tasks and modeled respectively in most prior works. But the two tasks are highly correlated. In this paper, we present a multi-task WaveNet model to perform simultaneous Tibetan multi-dialect speech recognition and dialect identification. It avoids processing the pronunciation dictionary and word segmentation for new dialects, while, in the meantime, allows training speech recognition and More >

Abstract Since Turkish is a morphologically productive language, it is almost impossible for a word-based recognition system to be realized to completely model Turkish language. Due to the fact that it is difficult for the system to recognize words not introduced to it in a word-based recognition system, recognition success rate drops considerably caused by out-of-vocabulary words. In this study, a speaker-dependent, phoneme-based word recognition system has been designed and implemented for Turkish Language to overcome the problem. An algorithm for finding phoneme-boundaries has been devised in order to segment the word into its phonemes. After More >
