Audio classification can distinguish different kinds of sounds, which is helpful for intelligent applications in daily life. However, it remains a challenging task since the sound events in an audio clip is probably multiple, even overlapping. This paper introduces an end-to-end audio classification system based on raw waveforms and mix-training strategy. Compared to human-designed features which have been widely used in existing research, raw waveforms contain more complete information and are more appropriate for multi-label classification. Taking raw waveforms as input, our network consists of two variants of ResNet structure which can learn a discriminative representation. To explore the information in intermediate layers, a multi-level prediction with attention structure is applied in our model. Furthermore, we design a mix-training strategy to break the performance limitation caused by the amount of training data. Experiments show that the mean average precision of the proposed audio classification system on Audio Set dataset is 37.2%. Without using extra training data, our system exceeds the state-of-the-art multi-level attention model.

In this paper, we present an end-to-end training framework for building state-of-the-art end-to-end speech recognition systems. Our training system utilizes a cluster of Central Processing Units(CPUs) and Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). The entire
data reading, large scale data augmentation, neural network parameter updates are all performed on-the-fly. We use vocal tract length perturbation [1] and an acoustic simulator [2] for data augmentation. The processed features and labels are sent to the GPU cluster. The Horovod allreduce approach is employed to train neural network parameters. We evaluated the effectiveness of our system on the standard Librispeech corpus [3] and the 10,000-hr anonymized Bixby English dataset. Our end-to-end speech recognition system built using this training infrastructure showed a 2.44 % WER on test-clean of the LibriSpeech test set after applying shallow fusion with a Transformer language model (LM). For the proprietary English Bixby open domain test set, we obtained a WER of 7.92 % using a Bidirectional Full Attention (BFA) end-to-end model after applying shallow fusion with an RNN-LM. When the monotonic chunckwise attention (MoCha) based approach is employed for streaming speech recognition, we obtained a WER of 9.95 % on the same Bixby open domain test set.
While deep learning based end-to-end automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems have greatly simplified modeling pipelines, they suffer from the data sparsity issue. In this work, we propose a self-training method with an end-to-end system for semi-s
upervised ASR. Starting from a Connectionist Temporal Classification (CTC) system trained on the supervised data, we iteratively generate pseudo-labels on a mini-batch of unsupervised utterances with the current model, and use the pseudo-labels to augment the supervised data for immediate model update. Our method retains the simplicity of end-to-end ASR systems, and can be seen as performing alternating optimization over a well-defined learning objective. We also perform empirical investigations of our method, regarding the effect of data augmentation, decoding beamsize for pseudo-label generation, and freshness of pseudo-labels. On a commonly used semi-supervised ASR setting with the WSJ corpus, our method gives 14.4% relative WER improvement over a carefully-trained base system with data augmentation, reducing the performance gap between the base system and the oracle system by 50%.
Synthesized speech from articulatory movements can have real-world use for patients with vocal cord disorders, situations requiring silent speech, or in high-noise environments. In this work, we present EMA2S, an end-to-end multimodal articulatory-to
-speech system that directly converts articulatory movements to speech signals. We use a neural-network-based vocoder combined with multimodal joint-training, incorporating spectrogram, mel-spectrogram, and deep features. The experimental results confirm that the multimodal approach of EMA2S outperforms the baseline system in terms of both objective evaluation and subjective evaluation metrics. Moreover, results demonstrate that joint mel-spectrogram and deep feature loss training can effectively improve system performance.
Whereas conventional spoken language understanding (SLU) systems map speech to text, and then text to intent, end-to-end SLU systems map speech directly to intent through a single trainable model. Achieving high accuracy with these end-to-end models
without a large amount of training data is difficult. We propose a method to reduce the data requirements of end-to-end SLU in which the model is first pre-trained to predict words and phonemes, thus learning good features for SLU. We introduce a new SLU dataset, Fluent Speech Commands, and show that our method improves performance both when the full dataset is used for training and when only a small subset is used. We also describe preliminary experiments to gauge the models ability to generalize to new phrases not heard during training.
In this paper, we report state-of-the-art results on LibriSpeech among end-to-end speech recognition models without any external training data. Our model, Jasper, uses only 1D convolutions, batch normalization, ReLU, dropout, and residual connections
. To improve training, we further introduce a new layer-wise optimizer called NovoGrad. Through experiments, we demonstrate that the proposed deep architecture performs as well or better than more complex choices. Our deepest Jasper variant uses 54 convolutional layers. With this architecture, we achieve 2.95% WER using a beam-search decoder with an external neural language model and 3.86% WER with a greedy decoder on LibriSpeech test-clean. We also report competitive results on the Wall Street Journal and the Hub500 conversational evaluation datasets.
