Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes receiving a sequence of acoustic frames as input to an automatic speech recognition (ASR) model. Here, the ASR model includes a causal encoder and a decoder. The method also includes generating, by the causal encoder, a first higher order feature representation for a corresponding acoustic frame in the sequence of acoustic frames. The method also includes generating, by the decoder, a first probability distribution over possible speech recognition hypotheses. Here, the causal encoder includes a stack of causal encoder layers each including a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) Attention-Performer module that applies linear attention.

Abstract: A RNN-T model includes a prediction network configured to, at each of a plurality of times steps subsequent to an initial time step, receive a sequence of non-blank symbols. For each non-blank symbol the prediction network is also configured to generate, using a shared embedding matrix, an embedding of the corresponding non-blank symbol, assign a respective position vector to the corresponding non-blank symbol, and weight the embedding proportional to a similarity between the embedding and the respective position vector. The prediction network is also configured to generate a single embedding vector at the corresponding time step. The RNN-T model also includes a joint network configured to, at each of the plurality of time steps subsequent to the initial time step, receive the single embedding vector generated as output from the prediction network at the corresponding time step and generate a probability distribution over possible speech recognition hypotheses.

Abstract: A recurrent neural network-transducer (RNN-T) model improves speech recognition by processing sequential non-blank symbols at each time step after an initial one. The model's prediction network receives a sequence of symbols from a final Softmax layer and employs a shared embedding matrix to create and map embeddings to each symbol, associating them with unique position vectors. These embeddings are weighted according to their similarity to their matching position vector. Subsequently, a joint network of the RNN-T model uses these weighted embeddings to output a probability distribution for potential speech recognition hypotheses at each time step, enabling more accurate transcriptions of spoken language.
