In this paper, we present a compression approach based on the combination of low-rank matrix factorization and quantization training, to reduce complexity for neural network based acoustic event detection (AED) models. Our experimental results show this combined compression approach is very effective. For a three-layer long short-term memory (LSTM) based AED model, the original model size can be reduced to 1% with negligible loss of accuracy. Our approach enables the feasibility of deploying AED for resource-constraint applications.

Acoustic Event Detection (AED), aiming at detecting categories of events based on audio signals, has found application in many intelligent systems. Recently deep neural network significantly advances this field and reduces detection errors to a large scale. However how to efficiently execute deep models in AED has received much less attention. Meanwhile state-of-the-art AED models are based on large deep models, which are computational demanding and challenging to deploy on devices with constrained computational resources. In this paper, we present a simple yet effective compression approach which jointly leverages knowledge distillation and quantization to compress larger network (teacher model) into compact network (student model). Experimental results show proposed technique not only lowers error rate of original compact network by 15% through distillation but also further reduces its model size to a large extent (2% of teacher, 12% of full-precision student) through quantization.
This paper presents our work of training acoustic event detection (AED) models using unlabeled dataset. Recent acoustic event detectors are based on large-scale neural networks, which are typically trained with huge amounts of labeled data. Labels fo r acoustic events are expensive to obtain, and relevant acoustic event audios can be limited, especially for rare events. In this paper we leverage an Internet-scale unlabeled dataset with potential domain shift to improve the detection of acoustic events. Based on the classic tri-training approach, our proposed method shows accuracy improvement over both the supervised training baseline, and semisupervised self-training set-up, in all pre-defined acoustic event detection tasks. As our approach relies on ensemble models, we further show the improvements can be distilled to a single model via knowledge distillation, with the resulting single student model maintaining high accuracy of teacher ensemble models.
Deep learning models have become state of the art for natural language processing (NLP) tasks, however deploying these models in production system poses significant memory constraints. Existing compression methods are either lossy or introduce signif icant latency. We propose a compression method that leverages low rank matrix factorization during training,to compress the word embedding layer which represents the size bottleneck for most NLP models. Our models are trained, compressed and then further re-trained on the downstream task to recover accuracy while maintaining the reduced size. Empirically, we show that the proposed method can achieve 90% compression with minimal impact in accuracy for sentence classification tasks, and outperforms alternative methods like fixed-point quantization or offline word embedding compression. We also analyze the inference time and storage space for our method through FLOP calculations, showing that we can compress DNN models by a configurable ratio and regain accuracy loss without introducing additional latency compared to fixed point quantization. Finally, we introduce a novel learning rate schedule, the Cyclically Annealed Learning Rate (CALR), which we empirically demonstrate to outperform other popular adaptive learning rate algorithms on a sentence classification benchmark.
In this paper we investigate the GMM-derived (GMMD) features for adaptation of deep neural network (DNN) acoustic models. The adaptation of the DNN trained on GMMD features is done through the maximum a posteriori (MAP) adaptation of the auxiliary GM M model used for GMMD feature extraction. We explore fusion of the adapted GMMD features with conventional features, such as bottleneck and MFCC features, in two different neural network architectures: DNN and time-delay neural network (TDNN). We analyze and compare different types of adaptation techniques such as i-vectors and feature-space adaptation techniques based on maximum likelihood linear regression (fMLLR) with the proposed adaptation approach, and explore their complementarity using various types of fusion such as feature level, posterior level, lattice level and others in order to discover the best possible way of combination. Experimental results on the TED-LIUM corpus show that the proposed adaptation technique can be effectively integrated into DNN and TDNN setups at different levels and provide additional gain in recognition performance: up to 6% of relative word error rate reduction (WERR) over the strong feature-space adaptation techniques based on maximum likelihood linear regression (fMLLR) speaker adapted DNN baseline, and up to 18% of relative WERR in comparison with a speaker independent (SI) DNN baseline model, trained on conventional features. For TDNN models the proposed approach achieves up to 26% of relative WERR in comparison with a SI baseline, and up 13% in comparison with the model adapted by using i-vectors. The analysis of the adapted GMMD features from various points of view demonstrates their effectiveness at different levels.
In this paper, we propose a sub-utterance unit selection framework to remove acoustic segments in audio recordings that carry little information for acoustic scene classification (ASC). Our approach is built upon a universal set of acoustic segment u nits covering the overall acoustic scene space. First, those units are modeled with acoustic segment models (ASMs) used to tokenize acoustic scene utterances into sequences of acoustic segment units. Next, paralleling the idea of stop words in information retrieval, stop ASMs are automatically detected. Finally, acoustic segments associated with the stop ASMs are blocked, because of their low indexing power in retrieval of most acoustic scenes. In contrast to building scene models with whole utterances, the ASM-removed sub-utterances, i.e., acoustic utterances without stop acoustic segments, are then used as inputs to the AlexNet-L back-end for final classification. On the DCASE 2018 dataset, scene classification accuracy increases from 68%, with whole utterances, to 72.1%, with segment selection. This represents a competitive accuracy without any data augmentation, and/or ensemble strategy. Moreover, our approach compares favourably to AlexNet-L with attention.
