Training partially connected MLPs for MULTIBAND systems

The RESpite workshop at Sheffield explored the application of partially connected multi-layer perceptrons (MLPs) in multiband systems. Focusing on independent neural networks for each subband, we examined the combinations of outputs from different subband networks to make global decisions. Various system architectures were tested on AURORA 2 data, measuring how added noise affects posterior probabilities and word error rates. By investigating the performance of fullband and subband-specific setups, we aim to enhance recognition accuracy in challenging acoustic environments.

Basic multiband system Training independent neural networks for each subband CBE subband 1 CBE subband 2 CBE subband 3 CBE subband 4 Posteriors subband 1 Posteriors subband 2 Posteriors subband 3 Posteriors subband 4 Subband posteriors or eventually outputs of the last hidden layer (NLDA) can then be combined to take a global decision. RESPITE workshop - Sheffield

  3. Partially connected MLPs If all the subband neural networks are trained on the same targets, can we train all the subband NN in one step ? CBE subband 1 CBE subband 2 CBE subband 3 CBE subband 4 NLDA Phoneme targets RESPITE workshop - Sheffield

  4. TEST 4 subband experiment on AURORA 2 data. The systems aretrained on white noise contaminated training data. System 1, fullband NN: 1 MLP: 300 x 1000 x 33 System 2, independent NN: 4 networks (2 hidden layers): 75 x 200 x 30 x 33 A MLP is used to recombine the outputs of the last hidden layer of each subband MLP. This MLP is trained on phoneme targets: 120 x 1000 x 33 System 3, partially connected NN: 1 partially connected network: 300 x 800 x 120 x 33 Input vector is the concatenation of the four subbands. A MLP is used to recombine the outputs of the last hidden layer. This MLP is trained on phoneme targets: 120 x 1000 x 33 RESPITE workshop - Sheffield

  5. TEST 4 subbands: 0-778 Hz, 707-1632 Hz, 1506-2709 Hz and 2122-4000Hz Test on the effect off added noise on the posteriors after subband recombination. Noise N1 (subway) at 0 dB in subband 2 only compared to clean speech with the 3 systems. Deviation of posteriors relative to clean speech (MSE) Word error rate – aurora test A, noise 1 RESPITE workshop - Sheffield
