Research on an improved Conformer end-to-end Speech Recognition Model with R-Drop Structure
To address the issue of poor generalization ability in end-to-end speech recognition models within deep learning, this study proposes a new Conformer-based speech recognition model called "Conformer-R" that incorporates the R-drop structure. This model combines the Conformer model, which has shown promising results in speech recognition, with the R-drop structure. By doing so, the model is able to effectively model both local and global speech information while also reducing overfitting through the use of the R-drop structure. This enhances the model's ability to generalize and improves overall recognition efficiency. The model was first pre-trained on the Aishell1 and Wenetspeech datasets for general domain adaptation, and subsequently fine-tuned on computer-related audio data. Comparison tests with classic models such as LAS and Wenet were performed on the same test set, demonstrating the Conformer-R model's ability to effectively improve generalization.
