Task: Question Generation
Input (English): What is the impact of pre-trained representations with less transcribed data? In order to get a better understanding of this, we train acoustic models with different amounts of labeled training data and measure accuracy with and without pre-trained representations (log-mel filterbanks). The pre-trained representations are trained on the full Librispeech corpus and we measure accuracy in terms of WER when decoding with a 4-gram language model. Figure shows that pre-training reduces WER by 32% on nov93dev when only about eight hours of transcribed data is available. Pre-training only on the audio data of WSJ ( WSJ) performs worse compared to the much larger Librispeech ( Libri). This further confirms that pre-training on more data is crucial to good performance.
Output (English): Do they explore how much traning data is needed for which magnitude of improvement for WER?
