We propose a novel technique that learns a low-dimensional feature representation from unlabeled data of a target language, and labeled data from a nontarget language. The technique is studied as a solution to query-by-example spoken term detection (QbE-STD) for a low-resource language. We extract low-dimensional features from a bottle-neck layer of a multitask deep neural network, which is jointly...
We propose to use a feature representation obtained by pairwise learning in a low-resource language for query-by-example spoken term detection (QbE-STD). We assume that word pairs identified by humans are available in the low-resource target language. The word pairs are parameterized by a multi-lingual bottleneck feature (BNF) extractor that is trained using transcribed data in high-resource languages...
Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) is widely used in language independent query-by-example (QbE) spoken term detection (STD) tasks due to its high performance. However, there are two limitations of DTW based template matching, 1) it is not straightforward to perform approximate match of audio queries; 2) DTW is sensitive to the mismatch of signal conditions between the query and the speech search data. To...
In this paper, we propose a partial sequence matching based symbolic search (SS) method for the task of language independent query-by-example spoken term detection. One main drawback of conventional SS approach is the high miss rate for long queries. This is due to high variations in symbol representation of query and search audios, especially in language independent scenario. The successful matching...
In this paper, we propose a new lower-bound estimate for speeding up dynamic time warping (DTW) on multivariate time sequences. It has several advantages as compared with the inner-product lower bound [1] recently proposed to eliminate a large number of DTW computations. First, we prove that it is tighter than the inner product lower bound while the computational complexity remains comparable. Second,...
