| Abstract | (in Japanese) | (See Japanese page) |
| (in English) | Data augmentation is one of the techniques to mitigate overfitting and improve robustness against several acoustic variabilities for the ASR system. This approach is to create artificially augmented data by adding certain types of transformations that maintain the class label for acquiring generalization ability. In this paper, we treat an auditory illusion as the acoustic transformation for the data generation. The auditory illusions related to speech signals have been proposed variously. Among them, we examine a locally time-reversed speech for data augmentation, especially. In our previous research, we proposed temporal reversal processing on a raw waveform directly. In contrast, we propose a method that processes the inversion on a feature sequence in this paper. Instead of the inversion of the raw waveform, the augmentation is able to eliminate the generation of an additional waveform, and thus enables online data creation during training. We applied the augmentation approach on the End-to-End automatic speech recognition task and evaluated the model compared with the baseline model by using CSJ corpus. As a result, the relative performance improvement of 8.4% was observed relative to the baseline. | |
