This paper presents our recent effort on end-to-end speaker-attributed automatic speech recognition, which jointly performs speaker counting, speech recognition and speaker identification for monaural multi-talker audio. Firstly, we thoroughly update the model architecture that was previously designed based on a long short-term memory (LSTM)-based attention encoder decoder by applying transformer architectures. Secondly, we propose a speaker deduplication mechanism to reduce speaker identification errors in highly overlapped regions. Experimental results on the LibriSpeechMix dataset shows that the transformer-based architecture is especially good at counting the speakers and that the proposed model reduces the speaker-attributed word error rate by 47% over the LSTM-based baseline. Furthermore, for the LibriCSS dataset, which consists of real recordings of overlapped speech, the proposed model achieves concatenated minimum-permutation word error rates of 11.9% and 16.3% with and without target speaker profiles, respectively, both of which are the state-of-the-art results for LibriCSS with the monaural setting.
Recently, an end-to-end speaker-attributed automatic speech recognition (E2E SA-ASR) model was proposed as a joint model of speaker counting, speech recognition and speaker identification for monaural overlapped speech. In the previous study, the mod

Multilingual ASR technology simplifies model training and deployment, but its accuracy is known to depend on the availability of language information at runtime. Since language identity is seldom known beforehand in real-world scenarios, it must be i
The Transformer self-attention network has recently shown promising performance as an alternative to recurrent neural networks in end-to-end (E2E) automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems. However, Transformer has a drawback in that the entire inpu
Transformers are powerful neural architectures that allow integrating different modalities using attention mechanisms. In this paper, we leverage the neural transformer architectures for multi-channel speech recognition systems, where the spectral an
