Keyword spotting (KWS) on mobile devices generally requires a small memory footprint. However, most current models still maintain a large number of parameters in order to ensure good performance. In this paper, we propose a temporally pooled attention module which can capture global features better than the AveragePool. Besides, we design a separable temporal convolution network which leverages depthwise separable and temporal convolution to reduce the number of parameter and calculations. Finally, taking advantage of separable temporal convolution and temporally pooled attention, a efficient neural network (ST-AttNet) is designed for KWS system. We evaluate the models on the publicly available Google speech commands data sets V1. The number of parameters of proposed model (48K) is 1/6 of state-of-the-art TC-ResNet14-1.5 model (305K). The proposed model achieves a 96.6% accuracy, which is comparable to the TC-ResNet14-1.5 model (96.6%).

Keyword spotting (KWS) on mobile devices generally requires a small memory footprint. However, most current models still maintain a large number of parameters in order to ensure good performance. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a separable temporal convolution neural network with attention, it has a small number of parameters. Through the time convolution combined with attention mechanism, a small number of parameters model (32.2K) is implemented while maintaining high performance. The proposed model achieves 95.7% accuracy on the Google Speech Commands dataset, which is close to the performance of Res15(239K), the state-of-the-art model in KWS at present.

Teaching with the cooperation of expert teacher and assistant teacher, which is the so-called double-teachers classroom, i.e., the course is giving by the expert online and presented through projection screen at the classroom, and the teacher at the classroom performs as an assistant for guiding the students in learning, is becoming more prevalent in todays teaching method for K-12 education. For monitoring the teaching quality, a microphone clipped on the assistants neckline is always used for voice recording, then fed to the downstream tasks of automatic speech recognition (ASR) and neural language processing (NLP). However, besides its voice, there would be some other interfering voices, including the experts one and the students one. Here, we propose to extract the assistant voices from the perspective of sound event detection, i.e., the voices are classified into four categories, namely the expert, the teacher, the mixture of them, and the background. To make frame-level identification, which is important for grabbing sensitive words for the downstream tasks, a multi-scale temporal convolution neural network is constructed with stacked dilated convolutions for considering both local and global properties. These features are concatenated and fed to a classification network constructed by three linear layers. The framework is evaluated on simulated data and real-world recordings, giving considerable performance in terms of precision and recall, compared with some classical classification methods.

Musical audio is generally composed of three physical properties: frequency, time and magnitude. Interestingly, human auditory periphery also provides neural codes for each of these dimensions to perceive music. Inspired by these intrinsic characteri stics, a frequency-temporal attention network is proposed to mimic human auditory for singing melody extraction. In particular, the proposed model contains frequency-temporal attention modules and a selective fusion module corresponding to these three physical properties. The frequency attention module is used to select the same activation frequency bands as did in cochlear and the temporal attention module is responsible for analyzing temporal patterns. Finally, the selective fusion module is suggested to recalibrate magnitudes and fuse the raw information for prediction. In addition, we propose to use another branch to simultaneously predict the presence of singing voice melody. The experimental results show that the proposed model outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods.
We introduce a few-shot transfer learning method for keyword spotting in any language. Leveraging open speech corpora in nine languages, we automate the extraction of a large multilingual keyword bank and use it to train an embedding model. With just five training examples, we fine-tune the embedding model for keyword spotting and achieve an average F1 score of 0.75 on keyword classification for 180 new keywords unseen by the embedding model in these nine languages. This embedding model also generalizes to new languages. We achieve an average F1 score of 0.65 on 5-shot models for 260 keywords sampled across 13 new languages unseen by the embedding model. We investigate streaming accuracy for our 5-shot models in two contexts: keyword spotting and keyword search. Across 440 keywords in 22 languages, we achieve an average streaming keyword spotting accuracy of 87.4% with a false acceptance rate of 4.3%, and observe promising initial results on keyword search.
The goal of this work is to automatically determine whether and when a word of interest is spoken by a talking face, with or without the audio. We propose a zero-shot method suitable for in the wild videos. Our key contributions are: (1) a novel conv olutional architecture, KWS-Net, that uses a similarity map intermediate representation to separate the task into (i) sequence matching, and (ii) pattern detection, to decide whether the word is there and when; (2) we demonstrate that if audio is available, visual keyword spotting improves the performance both for a clean and noisy audio signal. Finally, (3) we show that our method generalises to other languages, specifically French and German, and achieves a comparable performance to English with less language specific data, by fine-tuning the network pre-trained on English. The method exceeds the performance of the previous state-of-the-art visual keyword spotting architecture when trained and tested on the same benchmark, and also that of a state-of-the-art lip reading method.
