We propose a novel semi-supervised method for end-to-end automatic speech recognition (ASR). It can exploit large unpaired speech and text datasets, which require much less human effort to create paired speech-to-text datasets. Our semi-supervised method targets the extraction of an intermediate representation between ...

In particular, we report the state-of-the-art word error rates (WER) of 3.5...

There are many aspects of speech that we might want to control when creating text-to-speech (TTS) systems.

Human state–of-mind (SOM; e.g.: perception, cognition, attention) constantly shifts due to internal and external demands. Mental health is influenced by the habitual use of either adaptive or maladaptive SOM. Therefore, the training of conscious regulation of SOM could be promising in self-help (e- and m-health), ble...

This paper proposes a novel approach to create a unit set for CTC-based speech recognition systems. By using Byte-Pair Encoding we learn a unit set of an arbitrary size on a given training text. In contrast to using characters or words as units this allows us to find a good trade-off between the size of our unit set an...

In language modeling, it is difficult to incorporate entity relationships from a knowledge-base. One solution is to use a reranker trained with global features, in which global features are derived from n-best lists. However, training such a reranker requires manually annotated n-best lists, which is expensive to obtai...
