TIME-FREQUENCY CONVOLUTIONAL NEURAL NETWORK WITH BOTTLENECK ARCHITECTURE FOR QUERY-BY-EXAMPLE PROCESSING

摘要

A computing system determines whether a reference audio signal contains a query. A time-frequency convolutional neural network (TFCNN) comprises a time and frequency convolutional layers and a series of additional layers, which include a bottleneck layer. The computation engine applies the TFCNN to samples of a query utterance at least through the bottleneck layer. A query feature vector comprises output values of the bottleneck layer generated when the computation engine applies the TFCNN to the samples of the query utterance. The computation engine also applies the TFCNN to samples of the reference audio signal at least through the bottleneck layer. A reference feature vector comprises output values of the bottleneck layer generated when the computation engine applies the TFCNN to the samples of the reference audio signal. The computation engine determines at least one detection score based on the query feature vector and the reference feature vector.
