End-to-end Joint Rich and Normalized ASR with a limited amount of rich training data
Résumé
Joint rich and normalized automatic speech recognition (ASR), that produces transcriptions both with and without punctuation and capitalization, remains a challenge. End-to-end (E2E) ASR models offer both convenience and the ability to perform such joint transcription of speech. Training such models requires paired speech and rich text data, which is not widely available. In this paper, we compare two different approaches to train a stateless Transducer-based E2E joint rich and normalized ASR system, ready for streaming applications, with a limited amount of rich labeled data. The first approach uses a language model to generate pseudo-rich transcriptions of normalized training data. The second approach uses a single decoder conditioned on the type of the output. The first approach leads to E2E rich ASR which perform better on out-of-domain data, with up to 9% relative reduction in errors. The second approach demonstrates the feasibility of an E2E joint rich and normalized ASR system using as low as 5% rich training data with moderate (2.42% absolute) increase in errors.
