Abstract
A neural network system including a plurality of tiers of interconnected computing elements. The plurality of tiers includes an input tier whereto a sequence of input speech vectors is applied at a first rate. Two of the plurality of tiers are interconnected through a decimator configured to reduce the first rate of the sequence of input vectors. Alternatively, two of the plurality of tiers are interconnected through an interpolator configured to increase the first rate of the sequence of input vectors.
