New routing method enhances ASR domain adaptation without performance loss

Researchers have developed a new method called conservative residual routing to improve domain adaptation for Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems. This technique allows an adapted predictor to act as a residual correction to a base predictor, with a gate deciding how much of the adaptation to apply at each prefix. This approach effectively enhances recognition in the target domain without degrading performance in the source domain, unlike traditional methods that use a single interpolation weight. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more robust and adaptable speech recognition systems across different domains.

    Residual Expert Routing for Text-Only Domain Adaptation of Factorized Transducer ASR

    Fine-tuning the non-blank predictor of a factorized transducer on target-domain text improves recognition on that domain but degrades performance on the source domain. A single interpolation weight between base and adapted predictors cannot resolve this: the adapted predictor hel…
