Abstract
A method, apparatus, and non-transitory computer-readable medium for automatic speech recognition using conditional factorization for bilingual code-switched and monolingual speech may include receiving an audio observation sequence comprising a plurality of frames, the audio observation sequence including audio in a first language or a second language. The approach may further include mapping the audio observation sequence into a first sequence of hidden representations, the mapping being generated by a first encoder corresponding to the first language and mapping the audio observation sequence into a second sequence of hidden representations, the mapping being generated by a second encoder corresponding to the second language. The approach may further include generating a label-to-frame sequence based on the first sequence of hidden representations and the second sequence of hidden representations, using a joint neural network based model.
