Abstract
A method for training a multi-language speech recognition network includes providing utterance datasets corresponding to predetermined languages, inserting language identification (ID) labels into the utterance datasets, wherein each of the utterance datasets is labelled by each of the language ID labels, concatenating the labeled utterance datasets, generating initial network parameters from the utterance datasets, selecting the initial network parameters according to a predetermined sequence, and training, iteratively, an end-to-end network with a series of the selected initial network parameters and the concatenated labeled utterance datasets until a training result reaches a threshold.
