face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">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. <span style="font-size:12.8px">In this talk, I shall discuss our work<span> </span><span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:12.8px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;float:none;display:inline"><span>involving </span>various algorithmic and modeling improvements to build </span>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.</span></font></div><div class="gmail_extra"

face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">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. <span style="font-size:12.8px">In this talk, I shall discuss our work<span> </span><span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:12.8px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;float:none;display:inline"><span>involving </span>various algorithmic and modeling improvements to build </span>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.</span></font></div><div class="gmail_extra"

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. <span style="font-size:12.8px">In this talk, I shall discuss our work<span> </span><span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:12.8px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;float:none;display:inline"><span>involving </span>various algorithmic and modeling improvements to build </span>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.</span></font></div><div class="gmail_extra" style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:12.8px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial"><span style="font-size:12.8px"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></span></div><div class="gmail_extra" style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(34,34,34);font-size:12.8px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial"><span style="font-size:12.8px"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></span></div></div><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><br class="m_-8728968765432404050m_2536057889594797180gmail-Apple-interchange-newline">
