Effects of Language Relatedness for Cross-lingual Transfer Learning in Character-Based Language Models

no code implementations • LREC 2020 • Mittul Singh, Peter Smit, Sami Virpioja, Mikko Kurimo

We, however, show that for character-based NNLMs, only pretraining with a related language improves the ASR performance, and using an unrelated language may deteriorate it.

Subword RNNLM Approximations for Out-Of-Vocabulary Keyword Search

1 code implementation • 28 May 2020 • Mittul Singh, Sami Virpioja, Peter Smit, Mikko Kurimo

On these tasks, interpolating the baseline RNNLM approximation and a conventional LM outperforms the conventional LM in terms of the Maximum Term Weighted Value for single-character subwords.
