Abstract: Provided is a self-supervised learning method based on permutation invariant cross entropy. A self-supervised learning method based on permutation invariant cross entropy performed by an electronic device includes: defining a cross entropy loss function for pre-training of an end-to-end speech recognition model; configuring non-transcription speech corpus data composed only of speech as input data of the cross entropy loss function; setting all permutations of classes included in the non-transcription speech corpus data as an output target and calculating cross entropy losses for each class; and determining a minimum cross entropy loss among the calculated cross entropy losses for each class as a final loss.
