  • Patent number: 12205596
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices are provided for generating and using text-to-speech (TTS) data for improved speech recognition models. A main model is trained with keyword independent baseline training data. In some instances, acoustic and language model sub-components of the main model are modified with new TTS training data. In some instances, the new TTS training is obtained from a multi-speaker neural TTS system for a keyword that is underrepresented in the baseline training data. In some instances, the new TTS training data is used for pronunciation learning and normalization of keyword dependent confidence scores in keyword spotting (KWS) applications. In some instances, the new TTS training data is used for rapid speaker adaptation in speech recognition models.

  • Patent number: 12155557
    Abstract: According to a load sharing method and a network device, traffic distribution ratios are correspondingly preset for different paths. For example, an equivalent resistance method is used as a load sharing algorithm provided in embodiments of this application, to calculate a corresponding traffic distribution ratio for each possible path. The traffic distribution ratio and the corresponding path are preset for a corresponding node. In this way, traffic entering a network device is distributed to each path in the network device based on the preset ratio, without causing excessive bandwidth pressure on a shortest path, to implement relatively optimal load balancing. For the network device with either a ring network structure or a stereoscopic network structure, a requirement for a link bandwidth between the nodes in the network device can be reduced.

  • Patent number: 12107760
    Abstract: A method includes a first node obtaining a first target bandwidth of first traffic on a first path, where the first path is a path used to transmit the first traffic from the first node to a second node. The first target bandwidth is not greater than a minimum value in remaining available bandwidths of single-hop links on the first path, and a single-hop link is a link between two directly connected nodes. The first node sends the first traffic on the first path based on the first target bandwidth. Accordingly, before traffic is transmitted in the network device, available bandwidth resources are predetermined for the traffic, and the traffic corresponding to the available bandwidth resources is transmitted on the determined available bandwidth resources.
