The IEEE Spoken Language Technology Workshop (SLT) 2021 Alpha-mini Speech Challenge (ASC) is intended to improve research on keyword spotting (KWS) and sound source location (SSL) on humanoid robots. Many publications report significant improvements in deep learning based KWS and SSL on open source datasets in recent years. For deep learning model training, it is necessary to expand the data coverage to improve the robustness of model. Thus, simulating multi-channel noisy and reverberant data from single-channel speech, noise, echo and room impulsive response (RIR) is widely adopted. However, this approach may generate mismatch between simulated data and recorded data in real application scenarios, especially echo data. In this challenge, we open source a sizable speech, keyword, echo and noise corpus for promoting data-driven methods, particularly deep-learning approaches on KWS and SSL. We also choose Alpha-mini, a humanoid robot produced by UBTECH equipped with a built-in four-microphone array on its head, to record development and evaluation sets under the actual Alpha-mini robot application scenario, including noise as well as echo and mechanical noise generated by the robot itself for model evaluation. Furthermore, we illustrate the rules, evaluation methods and baselines for researchers to quickly assess their achievements and optimize their models.

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) has been significantly advanced with the use of deep learning and big data. However improving robustness, including achieving equally good performance on diverse speakers and accents, is still a challenging problem.
In particular, the performance of children speech recognition (CSR) still lags behind due to 1) the speech and language characteristics of childrens voice are substantially different from those of adults and 2) sizable open dataset for children speech is still not available in the research community. To address these problems, we launch the Children Speech Recognition Challenge (CSRC), as a flagship satellite event of IEEE SLT 2021 workshop. The challenge will release about 400 hours of Mandarin speech data for registered teams and set up two challenge tracks and provide a common testbed to benchmark the CSR performance. In this paper, we introduce the datasets, rules, evaluation method as well as baselines.
The variety of accents has posed a big challenge to speech recognition. The Accented English Speech Recognition Challenge (AESRC2020) is designed for providing a common testbed and promoting accent-related research. Two tracks are set in the challeng
e -- English accent recognition (track 1) and accented English speech recognition (track 2). A set of 160 hours of accented English speech collected from 8 countries is released with labels as the training set. Another 20 hours of speech without labels is later released as the test set, including two unseen accents from another two countries used to test the model generalization ability in track 2. We also provide baseline systems for the participants. This paper first reviews the released dataset, track setups, baselines and then summarizes the challenge results and major techniques used in the submissions.
This paper introduces the sixth Oriental Language Recognition (OLR) 2021 Challenge, which intends to improve the performance of language recognition systems and speech recognition systems within multilingual scenarios. The data profile, four tasks, t
wo baselines, and the evaluation principles are introduced in this paper. In addition to the Language Identification (LID) tasks, multilingual Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) tasks are introduced to OLR 2021 Challenge for the first time. The challenge this year focuses on more practical and challenging problems, with four tasks: (1) constrained LID, (2) unconstrained LID, (3) constrained multilingual ASR, (4) unconstrained multilingual ASR. Baselines for LID tasks and multilingual ASR tasks are provided, respectively. The LID baseline system is an extended TDNN x-vector model constructed with Pytorch. A transformer-based end-to-end model is provided as the multilingual ASR baseline system. These recipes will be online published, and available for participants to construct their own LID or ASR systems. The baseline results demonstrate that those tasks are rather challenging and deserve more effort to achieve better performance.
COVID-19 has resulted in over 100 million infections and caused worldwide lock downs due to its high transmission rate and limited testing options. Current diagnostic tests can be expensive, limited in availability, time-intensive and require risky i
n-person appointments. It has been established that symptomatic COVID-19 seriously impairs normal functioning of the respiratory system, thus affecting the coughing acoustics. The 2021 DiCOVA Challenge @ INTERSPEECH was designed to find scientific and engineering insights to the question by enabling participants to analyze an acoustic dataset gathered from COVID-19 positive and non-COVID-19 individuals. In this report we describe our participation in the Challenge (Track 1). We achieved 82.37% AUC ROC on the blind test outperforming the Challenges baseline of 69.85%.
In this report, we describe the Beijing ZKJ-NPU team submission to the VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge 2021 (VoxSRC-21). We participated in the fully supervised speaker verification track 1 and track 2. In the challenge, we explored various ki
nds of advanced neural network structures with different pooling layers and objective loss functions. In addition, we introduced the ResNet-DTCF, CoAtNet and PyConv networks to advance the performance of CNN-based speaker embedding model. Moreover, we applied embedding normalization and score normalization at the evaluation stage. By fusing 11 and 14 systems, our final best performances (minDCF/EER) on the evaluation trails are 0.1205/2.8160% and 0.1175/2.8400% respectively for track 1 and 2. With our submission, we came to the second place in the challenge for both tracks.
