Weighted-Sampling Audio Adversarial Example Attack
Recent studies have highlighted audio adversarial examples as a ubiquitous
threat to state-of-the-art automatic speech recognition systems. Thorough
studies on how to effectively generate adversarial examples are essential to
prevent potential attacks. Despite many research on this, the efficiency and
the robustness of existing works are not yet satisfactory. In this paper, we
propose~\textit{weighted-sampling audio adversarial examples}, focusing on the
numbers and the weights of distortion to reinforce the attack. Further, we
apply a denoising method in the loss function to make the adversarial attack
more imperceptible. Experiments show that our method is the first in the field
to generate audio adversarial examples with low noise and high audio robustness
at the minute time-consuming level.Comment: https://aaai.org/Papers/AAAI/2020GB/AAAI-LiuXL.9260.pd
Deep Learning for Environmentally Robust Speech Recognition: An Overview of Recent Developments
Eliminating the negative effect of non-stationary environmental noise is a
long-standing research topic for automatic speech recognition that stills
remains an important challenge. Data-driven supervised approaches, including
ones based on deep neural networks, have recently emerged as potential
alternatives to traditional unsupervised approaches and with sufficient
training, can alleviate the shortcomings of the unsupervised methods in various
real-life acoustic environments. In this light, we review recently developed,
representative deep learning approaches for tackling non-stationary additive
and convolutional degradation of speech with the aim of providing guidelines
for those involved in the development of environmentally robust speech
recognition systems. We separately discuss single- and multi-channel techniques
developed for the front-end and back-end of speech recognition systems, as well
as joint front-end and back-end training frameworks
