Patent EP-3459077-A1 (EP)
Inventor: YU DONG
IPC: G10L21/0272
Filed: 2017-05-06
Abstract: The techniques described herein improve methods to equip a computing device to conduct automatic speech recognition ("ASR") in talker-independent multi-talker scenarios. In some examples, permutation invariant training of deep learning models can be used for talker-independent multi-talker scenarios. In some examples, the techniques can determine a permutation-considered assignment between a model's estimate of a source signal and the source signal. In some examples, the techniques can include training the model generating the estimate to minimize a deviation of the permutation-considered assignment. These techniques can be implemented into a neural network's structure itself, solving the label permutation problem that prevented making progress on deep learning based techniques for speech separation. The techniques discussed herein can also include source tracing to trace streams originating from a same source through the frames of a mixed signal.

Abstract: An in-vehicle device comprises a communication unit and a controller. The communication unit receives first information for detecting proximity of a vehicle to a predetermined area. The controller acquires second information indicating a schedule of changing a travel direction of the vehicle. If the controller detects the proximity of the vehicle to the predetermined area based on the first information received by the communication unit, upon estimating a scheduled route of the vehicle in the predetermined area based on the second information, the controller transmits third information for notifying a person getting close to the scheduled route which has been estimated of the proximity of the vehicle to an electronic apparatus located outside the vehicle using the communication unit.
