Access to recorded interviews: A research agenda
Recorded interviews form a rich basis for scholarly inquiry. Examples include oral histories, community memory projects, and interviews conducted for broadcast media. Emerging technologies offer the potential to radically transform the way in which recorded interviews are made accessible, but this vision will demand substantial investments from a broad range of research communities. This article reviews the present state of practice for making recorded interviews available and the state-of-the-art for key component technologies. A large number of important research issues are identified, and from that set of issues, a coherent research agenda is proposed
On the Compression of Recurrent Neural Networks with an Application to LVCSR acoustic modeling for Embedded Speech Recognition
We study the problem of compressing recurrent neural networks (RNNs). In
particular, we focus on the compression of RNN acoustic models, which are
motivated by the goal of building compact and accurate speech recognition
systems which can be run efficiently on mobile devices. In this work, we
present a technique for general recurrent model compression that jointly
compresses both recurrent and non-recurrent inter-layer weight matrices. We
find that the proposed technique allows us to reduce the size of our Long
Short-Term Memory (LSTM) acoustic model to a third of its original size with
negligible loss in accuracy.Comment: Accepted in ICASSP 201
