An audio processing system is described. The audio processing system uses a convolutional neural network architecture to process audio data, a recurrent neural network architecture to process at least data derived from an output of the convolutional neural network architecture, and a feed-forward neural network architecture to process at least data derived from an output of the recurrent neural network architecture. The feed-forward neural network architecture is configured to output classification scores for a plurality of sound units associated with speech. The classification scores indicate a presence of one or more sound units in the audio data. The convolutional neural network architecture has a plurality of convolutional groups arranged in series, where a convolutional group includes a combination of two data mappings arranged in parallel.

Neural acoustic model

Systems and methods for processing speech are described. In certain examples, image data is used to generate visual feature tensors and audio data is used to generate audio feature tensors. The visual feature tensors and the audio feature tensors are used by a linguistic model to determine linguistic features that are usable to parse an utterance of a user. The generation of the feature tensors may be jointly configured with the linguistic model. Systems may be provided in a client-server architecture.
