  • 초록: In this talk, we review various end-to-end automatic speech recognition and speech synthesis algorithms and their optimization techniques for on-device applications. Conventional speech recognition systems comprise a large number of discrete components such as an acoustic model, a language model, a pronunciation model, a text-normalizer, an inverse-text normalizer, a decoder based on a Weighted Finite-State Transducer (WFST), and so on. To obtain sufficiently high speech recognition accuracy with such conventional speech recognition systems, a very large language model (up to 100 GB) is usually needed. Hence, the corresponding WFST size becomes enormous, which prohibits their on-device implementation. Recently, fully neural network end-to-end speech recognition algorithms have been proposed. Examples include speech recognition systems based on Connectionist Temporal Classification (CTC), Recurrent Neural Network Transducer (RNN-T), Attention-based Encoder-Decoder models (AED), Monotonic Chunk-wise Attention (MoChA), transformer-based speech recognition systems, and so on. The inverse process of speech recognition is speech synthesis where a text sequence is converted into a waveform. Conventional speech synthesizers are usually based on parametric or concatenative approaches. Even though Text-to-Speech (TTS) systems based on the concatenative approaches have shown relatively good sound quality, they cannot be easily employed for on-device applications because of their immense size. Recently, neural speech synthesis approaches based on Tacotron and Wavenet started a new era of TTS with significantly better speech quality. More recently, vocoders based on LPCnet require significantly smaller computation than Wavenet, which makes it feasible to run these algorithms on on-device platforms. These fully neural network-based systems require much smaller memory footprints compared to conventional algorithms.

  • 초록: Computer programs can complete many tasks much more effectively and efficiently than human beings, such as calculating the product of two large numbers, or finding all occurrences of a string in a long text. However, the performance of computers on many intelligent tasks is still low. For example, in a chatting scenario, computers often generate irrelevant or incorrect responses; we can easily find amusing results in automatic machine translations; and it is still a very challenging task for state-of-the-art computer programs to solve even primary-school-level math word problems. As an exploration project in grounded and executable semantic parsing and an effort to push toward real world knowledge computing, the SigmaDolphin project at MSRA aims to build an intelligent computer system that can automatically solve math word problems. In this talk, I will summarize our findings in addressing the three major challenges of math word problem solving: dataset creation, math word problem understanding and math equation generation.

[seminar] Responsible Data Use in the context of Explainable AI

by jacobNo Comments
  • 초록: Responsible Data Use is becoming increasingly important for all businesses that manage data and for LinkedIn where trust is key, we are taking Responsible Data Use very seriously, from protecting members, to privacy, to data governance, and explainable AI. I will in this talk first provide an overview of LinkedIn and Data Science at LinkedIn. I will then briefly cover what responsible data use is and focus on the area of explainable AI and describe our end-to-end solution that is now being used in production for some of our internal products. The emphasis on this deep dive is to communicate what it takes to get such work into production beyond the main algorithms and theory.

[seminar] Commonsense Knowledge in AI

by jacobNo Comments
  • 연사: Prof. Henry Liberman
  • 소속: MIT
  • 초록: Despite all the recent successes of AI, computers still struggle to capture simple knowledge about people and everyday life — what we call “commonsense” knowledge. Commonsense knowledge underlies our ability to understand language and perform problem solving. Commonsense knowledge is different from “factual” knowledge, as you might find in Wikipedia or encyclopedias. Commonsense reasoning is also different from probabilistic reasoning, as humans (as far as we know) perform commonsense reasoning without the counting operations inherent in probability. Commonsense reasoning is about plausibility rather than truth per se, and is best performed by analogical reasoning. I will describe efforts to collect commonsense knowledge, to reason with it, and to synthesize both commonsense and probabilistic approaches. Commonsense knowledge is important in user interfaces for intelligent agents, for sensible default behavior for interfaces, and for explanation and debugging.
