• Abstract summary: We propose a novel approach to real-time sequence labeling in speech. Our model treats speech and its own textual representation as two separate modalities or views. We show significant gains of jointly learning from the two modalities when compared to text or audio only.

• Abstract: We address a challenging and practical task of labeling questions in speech in real time during telephone calls to emergency medical services in English, which embeds within a broader decision support system for emergency call-takers. We propose a novel multimodal approach to real-time sequence labeling in speech. Our model treats speech and its own textual representation as two separate modalities or views, as it jointly learns from streamed audio and its noisy transcription into text via automatic speech recognition. Our results show significant gains of jointly learning from the two modalities when compared to text or audio only, under adverse noise and limited volume of training data. The results generalize to medical symptoms detection where we observe a similar pattern of improvements with multimodal learning.

  We propose a multi-modal multi-correlation learning framework targeting at the task of audio-visual speech separation. We define two key correlations which are: (1) identity correlation (between timbre and facial attributes); (2) phonetic correlation. For implementation, contrastive learning or adversarial training approach is applied to maximize these two correlations.

  Self-supervised representation learning methods promise a single universal model that would benefit a wide variety of tasks and domains. Speech representation learning is experiencing similar progress in three main categories: generative, contrastive, and predictive methods. This review presents approaches for self-supervised speech representation learning and their connection to other research areas.

  We investigate multi-speaker speech recognition from ultrasound images of the tongue and video images of the lips. We train our systems on imaging data from modal speech, and evaluate on matched test sets of two speaking modes: silent and modal speech. We observe that silent speech recognition from imaging data underperforms compared to modal speech recognition, likely due to a speaking-mode mismatch between training and testing.

  Articulatory-to-acoustic (A2A) synthesis refers to the generation of audible speech from captured movement of the speech articulators. This technique has numerous applications, such as restoring oral communication to people who cannot longer speak due to illness or injury. We propose a solution to this problem based on the theory of multi-view learning.
