Abstract
Systems and methods for a speech recognition system for recognizing speech including overlapping speech by multiple speakers. The system including a hardware processor. A computer storage memory to store data along with having computer-executable instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the processor is to implement a stored speech recognition network. An input interface to receive an acoustic signal, the received acoustic signal including a mixture of speech signals by multiple speakers, wherein the multiple speakers include target speakers. An encoder network and a decoder network of the stored speech recognition network are trained to transform the received acoustic signal into a text for each target speaker. Such that the encoder network outputs a set of recognition encodings, and the decoder network uses the set of recognition encodings to output the text for each target speaker. An output interface to transmit the text for each target speaker.
