چکیده

We compare the performance of a recurrent neural network with the best results published so far on phoneme recognition in the TIMIT database. These published results have been obtained with a combination of classifiers. However, in this paper we apply a single recurrent neural network to the same task. Our recurrent neural network attains an error rate of 24.6%. This result is not significantly different from that obtained by the other best methods, but they rely on a combination of classifiers for achieving comparable performance.

Bidirectional LSTM Networks for Improved Phoneme Classification and Recognition

In this paper, we carry out two experiments on the TIMIT speech corpus with bidirectional and unidirectional Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) networks. In the first experiment (framewise phoneme classification) we find that bidirectional LSTM outperforms both unidirectional LSTM and conventional Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs). In the second (phoneme recognition) we find that a hybrid BLSTM-HMM s...

A Tandem BLSTM-DBN Architecture for Keyword Spotting with Enhanced Context Modeling

We propose a novel architecture for keyword spotting which is composed of a Dynamic Bayesian Network (DBN) and a bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BLSTM) recurrent neural net. The DBN is based on a phoneme recognizer and uses a hidden garbage variable as well as the concept of switching parents to discriminate between keywords and arbitrary speech. Contextual information is incorporated by ...

Online Sequence Training of Recurrent Neural Networks with Connectionist Temporal Classification

Connectionist temporal classification (CTC) based supervised sequence training of recurrent neural networks (RNNs) has shown great success in many machine learning areas including end-to-end speech and handwritten character recognition. For the CTC training, however, it is required to unroll the RNN by the length of an input sequence. This unrolling requires a lot of memory and hinders a small ...

Towards End-to-End Speech Recognition with Deep Convolutional Neural Networks

Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are effective models for reducing spectral variations and modeling spectral correlations in acoustic features for automatic speech recognition (ASR). Hybrid speech recognition systems incorporating CNNs with Hidden Markov Models/Gaussian Mixture Models (HMMs/GMMs) have achieved the state-of-the-art in various benchmarks. Meanwhile, Connectionist Temporal Cla...
