The Interpreter Understands Your Meaning: End-to-end Spoken Language Understanding Aided by Speech Translation (2023.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Modern artificial intelligence is characterized by large pretrained language models with strong language capabilities to be adapted to various downstream tasks. |
| Approach: | They propose to use the task of speech translation (ST) to pretrain speech models for end-to-end SLU on intra- and cross-lingual scenarios. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model achieves higher performance over baselines on monolingual and multilingual intent classification as well as spoken question answering using SLURP, MINDS-14, and NMSQA benchmarks. |
