This paper presents a novel approach for developing a unified speech processing model capable of handling various downstream tasks, including Automatic Speech Recognition, Phoneme Recognition, Intent Classification, Slot Filling, and Spoken Emotion Recognition. By leveraging adapter-based fine-tuning, the authors demonstrate that a single encoder-decoder model can be trained to perform multiple tasks with an average improvement of 18.4% compared to baseline models while maintaining computational efficiency.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
The paper shows how self-supervised learning models can be fine-tuned for various speech processing tasks using adapter-based fine-tuning, achieving better results on the SUPERB benchmark than previous approaches. This innovative method could have significant implications for developing more efficient and effective speech processing systems in real-world applications.
