Problems solved by technology

However, the above methods only consider the channel weight assignment of a small number of self-organizing nodes (no more than 10 microphone nodes), and do not explore the issue of channel selection
When the sound field environment becomes larger and more complex, and there are more self-organizing nodes, on the one hand, bec

Example Embodiment

[0128] DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0129] This embodiment uses three data sets: librispeech corpus, libri-adhoc-simu dataset in the self-organized microphone array environment based on librispeech simulation, and 40 distributed microphones play back librispeech's libri-adHoc40 in real environments. Each node of the self-organized microphone array of libri-adhoc-simu and libri-adhoc40 is a single microphone, a channel represents a node. Librispeech contains 2484 speakers more than 1,000 hours of English speeches. In the example, 960 hours of data were selected to train the single channel ASR system and selected 10 hours of data for verification.

[0130] For simulation data, libri-adhoc-simu uses librispeech data for 100 hours "Train-100" subset as training data. Use the "dev-clean" subset as the verification data, a total of 10 hours of data. The "Test-Clean" subset is used as two separate test sets, which contain 5 hours of test data, respectively. The length and width of the simulate...

Abstract

The invention discloses a layer-by-layer channel selection method for voice recognition of a self-organizing microphone, and the method is based on a conformer voice recognition framework, and the method comprises: (1), an encoder-decoder framework is adopted, an encoder is based on a Conformer framework, a decoder is based on a Transformer framework, and a multi-head attention mechanism is introduced into an encoder-decoder module; (2) for a single-channel voice recognition system, clean voice is adopted for independent training; and (3) for a multi-channel voice recognition system, the voice of each channel is encoded and then the same decoder is shared, a multi-layer flow attention mechanism is trained, and the channels are screened layer by layer. Under a large-scale self-organizing microphone array, compared with other flow attention-based methods, the method provided by the invention is higher in speech recognition accuracy and lower in calculation complexity.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of voice recognition, and in particular relates to a layer-by-layer channel selection method for voice recognition. Background technique [0002] Long-distance speech recognition is an extremely challenging problem. Multi-channel speech recognition based on microphone array is an important way to improve performance. However, when the distance between the speaker and the microphone array increases, the quality of speech will drop sharply, resulting in a physical upper bound for the performance of Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) no matter how many channels are added to the array. Self-organizing microphone array is a method to solve the above problems, which includes a series of microphone nodes randomly scattered in the sound field, and the microphone node can be a microphone or a microphone array. Using channel weight assignment and channel selection, the microphones around the speaker can be automatic...
