Where: TTIC, 6045 S Kenwood Avenue, 5th Floor, Room 526
Who: Rohit Prabhavalkar, Google
Title: End-to-End Modeling For Automatic Speech Recognition
Abstract: Traditional approaches to automatic speech recognition (ASR) rely
on separate acoustic model (AM), pronunciation model (PM) and language
model (LM) components. Typically, these modules are either trained
independently, or are curated using expert knowledge. Over the last several
years, there has been a growing interest in developing "end-to-end" speech
recognition systems which attempt to learn all of these components jointly
in a single system. In this talk, I shall discuss our work involving various
algorithmic and modeling improvements to build end-to-end speech
recognition systems which surpass the performance of a conventional ASR
system. I shall also discuss promising results obtained by applying this
approach to the task of multi-lingual and multi-dialect speech recognition.
Finally, I shall discuss some of the current challenges with these models
and outline future research directions.
