Fluent Translations from Disfluent Speech in End-to-End Speech Translation (N19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Disfluency removal is an intermediate step between speech recognition and machine translation (MT) with the rise of end-to-end speech translation systems, disfluency recognition and removal needs to be incorporated into the model architectures or handled as a post-processing step. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a sequence-to-sequence model to translate from noisy, disfluent speech to fluent text with disfluencies removed using the recently collected ‘copy-edited’ references for the Fisher Spanish-English dataset. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model generates fluent translations from disfluent speech using the recently collected ‘copy-edited’ references for the Fisher Spanish-English dataset. |
