  • Publication number: 20210005182
    Abstract: Audio signals of speech may be processed using an acoustic model. An acoustic model may be implemented with multiple streams of processing where different streams perform processing using different dilation rates. For example, a first stream may process features of the audio signal with one or more convolutional neural network layers having a first dilation rate, and a second stream may process features of the audio signal with one or more convolutional neural network layers having a second dilation rate. Each stream may compute a stream vector, and the stream vectors may be combined to a vector of speech unit scores, where the vector of speech unit scores provides information about the acoustic content of the audio signal. The vector of speech unit scores may be used for any appropriate application of speech, such as automatic speech recognition.
