In this work, we propose small footprint Convolutional Recurrent Neural Network models applied to the problem of wakeword detection and augment them with scaled dot product attention. We find that false accepts compared to Convolutional Neural Network models in a 250k parameter budget can be reduced by 25% with a 10% reduction in parameter size by using CRNNs, and we can get up to 32% improvement at a 50k parameter budget with 75% reduction in parameter size compared to word-level Dense Neural Network models. We discuss solutions to the challenging problem of performing inference on streaming audio with CRNNs, as well as differences in start-end index errors and latency in comparison to CNN, DNN, and DNN-HMM models.

This paper proposes a Sub-band Convolutional Neural Network for spoken term classification. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have proven to be very effective in acoustic applications such as spoken term classification, keyword spotting, speaker i
dentification, acoustic event detection, etc. Unlike applications in computer vision, the spatial invariance property of 2D convolutional kernels does not fit acoustic applications well since the meaning of a specific 2D kernel varies a lot along the feature axis in an input feature map. We propose a sub-band CNN architecture to apply different convolutional kernels on each feature sub-band, which makes the overall computation more efficient. Experimental results show that the computational efficiency brought by sub-band CNN is more beneficial for small-footprint models. Compared to a baseline full band CNN for spoken term classification on a publicly available Speech Commands dataset, the proposed sub-band CNN architecture reduces the computation by 39.7% on commands classification, and 49.3% on digits classification with accuracy maintained.
In this work, we propose an overlapped speech detection system trained as a three-class classifier. Unlike conventional systems that perform binary classification as to whether or not a frame contains overlapped speech, the proposed approach classifi
es into three classes: non-speech, single speaker speech, and overlapped speech. By training a network with the more detailed label definition, the model can learn a better notion on deciding the number of speakers included in a given frame. A convolutional recurrent neural network architecture is explored to benefit from both convolutional layers capability to model local patterns and recurrent layers ability to model sequential information. The proposed overlapped speech detection model establishes a state-of-the-art performance with a precision of 0.6648 and a recall of 0.3222 on the DIHARD II evaluation set, showing a 20% increase in recall along with higher precision. In addition, we also introduce a simple approach to utilize the proposed overlapped speech detection model for speaker diarization which ranked third place in the Track 1 of the DIHARD III challenge.
Deep neural networks provide effective solutions to small-footprint keyword spotting (KWS). However, if training data is limited, it remains challenging to achieve robust and highly accurate KWS in real-world scenarios where unseen sounds that are ou
t of the training data are frequently encountered. Most conventional methods aim to maximize the classification accuracy on the training set, without taking the unseen sounds into account. To enhance the robustness of the deep neural networks based KWS, in this paper, we introduce a new loss function, named the maximization of the area under the receiver-operating-characteristic curve (AUC). The proposed method not only maximizes the classification accuracy of keywords on the closed training set, but also maximizes the AUC score for optimizing the performance of non-keyword segments detection. Experimental results on the Google Speech Commands dataset v1 and v2 show that our method achieves new state-of-the-art performance in terms of most evaluation metrics.
Naturalistic speech recordings usually contain speech signals from multiple speakers. This phenomenon can degrade the performance of speech technologies due to the complexity of tracing and recognizing individual speakers. In this study, we investiga
te the detection of overlapping speech on segments as short as 25 ms using Convolutional Neural Networks. We evaluate the detection performance using different spectral features, and show that pyknogram features outperforms other commonly used speech features. The proposed system can predict overlapping speech with an accuracy of 84% and Fscore of 88% on a dataset of mixed speech generated based on the GRID dataset.
For dual-channel speech enhancement, it is a promising idea to design an end-to-end model based on the traditional array signal processing guideline and the manifold space of multi-channel signals. We found that the idea above can be effectively impl
emented by the classical convolutional recurrent neural networks (CRN) architecture. We propose a very compact in place gated convolutional recurrent neural network (inplace GCRN) for end-to-end multi-channel speech enhancement, which utilizes inplace-convolution for frequency pattern extraction and reconstruction. The inplace characteristics efficiently preserve spatial cues in each frequency bin for channel-wise long short-term memory neural networks (LSTM) tracing the spatial source. In addition, we come up with a new spectrum recovery method by predict amplitude mask, mapping, and phase, which effectively improves the speech quality.
