Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
With the rapid development of the artificial intelligence industry, the voice recognition technology is widely applied to the interactive fields of smart homes, intelligent robots and the like. In recent years, many development technologies related to speech recognition are continuously innovated, and speech is one of the most convenient and fast interaction modes, and the recognition thereof is just an important link of human-computer interaction. With the increasing use of voice users, the difference of pronunciation habits among users becomes more and more obvious, and in this case, in the traditional method for performing voice recognition by using a unified universal voice recognition system, as the universal voice recognition system needs to cover more users and more scenes, the method cannot achieve good recognition accuracy for all users.
Therefore, how to utilize the personalized information of each user and enhance the pertinence of the voice recognition system so as to improve the voice recognition accuracy of each user becomes an important research direction in the field of the current voice recognition. The existing personalized speech recognition method generally constructs a personalized speech recognition system for each user based on a large amount of historical speech data of the user. However, this method is difficult for a new user to construct a reliable speech recognition system due to lack of historical data of the user, resulting in limited personalized enhancement effect of the method; for old users, the difference of the number of the historical speeches of each user is large, each user needs to individually customize and store a set of recognition models (such as acoustic models in the traditional hidden markov model-based recognition system or Encode-Decode models), and the deployment and maintenance difficulty is large, so the practicability is poor.
Therefore, the embodiment of the invention provides a voice recognition method, which can effectively perform personalized enhancement of voice recognition and improve the accuracy of voice recognition. Fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of a speech recognition method according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, the method includes:
step 110, determining the voice to be recognized of the user;
step 120, based on the preset state transition path, performing voice recognition decoding on the voice to be recognized to obtain a voice recognition result; the preset state transition path is obtained by expansion based on the regional information and/or the historical input information of the user.
Specifically, a speech to be recognized of a user is acquired. The voice to be recognized may be voice data recorded by the user in real time through the electronic device, or may also be stored or received voice data, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the present invention.
And then, carrying out voice recognition decoding on the voice to be recognized by utilizing a preset state transfer path to obtain a voice recognition result. The preset state transition path may be a path between any two adjacent nodes in the decoding network. Here, the decoding network can be used as a search space to find an optimal path from the initial node to the termination node, thereby realizing the decoding of the speech to be recognized. Specifically, after each speech frame in the speech to be recognized is converted into a state sequence or a phoneme sequence by using an acoustic model, the state sequence or the phoneme sequence is mapped to a word sequence based on a decoding network; or combining an end-to-end language recognition model, such as an Encode-Decode model, converting the speech to be recognized into a word sequence, and mapping the word sequence to a word sequence based on a decoding network. In addition, the decoding network may be constructed based on knowledge sources such as an acoustic model, a pronunciation dictionary, a language model, and the like, and may be established based on a weighted finite-state transducers (WFST), for example, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the present invention.
When the speech to be recognized is subjected to speech recognition decoding, a preset state transition path in a decoding network is gradually searched from an initial node and a score is calculated according to a state sequence, a phoneme sequence or a word sequence of the speech to be recognized, so that an optimal path is found. Therefore, the construction of the preset state transition path is an important part in the personalized speech recognition process, and the closer the preset state transition path is attached to the current user, the higher the accuracy of the speech recognition result obtained by decoding is.
In contrast, when the decoding network is constructed, in the embodiment of the present invention, in addition to using knowledge sources such as an acoustic model, a pronunciation dictionary, and a language model, a preset state transition path in the decoding network is expanded according to regional information and/or historical input information of a user. The path expansion aiming at the current user can be carried out on the basis of the existing decoding network, so that the method provided by the embodiment of the invention can realize the personalized voice recognition only by storing less personalized information aiming at the current user and slightly changing the existing decoding network, and the practicability of the voice recognition method is enhanced. For example, a plurality of new paths may be added between corresponding nodes in the decoding network according to the regional information and/or the historical input information of the user, and the score of the added paths may be calculated based on the language model.
The region information of the user can provide the current position information of the user, and the destination which the user may go to next step can be presumed according to the region information of the user and expanded into the decoding network. When the user navigates by using voice, the expanded preset state transition path can be searched when the voice is recognized and decoded, and even if the pronunciation of the user is not standard or the name of the navigation destination is difficult to recognize, the voice content input by the user can be accurately recognized. Besides, the historical input information of the user can also additionally provide the expression habit of the user, so as to help deduce the words which the user may express at present. Therefore, the historical input information of the user can be further refined and expanded into a decoding network, so that the accuracy of voice recognition is improved.
The method provided by the embodiment of the invention dynamically expands the preset state transfer path in the decoding network based on the regional information and/or the historical input information of the current user, so that the voice to be recognized of the user is recognized and decoded based on the expanded preset state transfer path, the accuracy of personalized voice recognition is improved by utilizing the personalized information of the user, and the practicability of the method is enhanced by dynamically expanding the preset state transfer path.
Based on the above embodiment, step 120 includes:
determining a phoneme sequence corresponding to the speech to be recognized;
and decoding the phoneme sequence at the current decoding position based on the preset state transition path corresponding to the previous decoding position to obtain a decoding result at the current decoding position.
Specifically, each speech frame of the speech to be recognized is recognized, and a phoneme sequence corresponding to the speech to be recognized is obtained. Here, the acoustic features of each speech frame of the speech to be recognized may be extracted to obtain the acoustic features of each speech frame, and then the acoustic features of each speech frame are recognized based on the acoustic model to determine the state to which each speech frame belongs, and further combine the states into phonemes to obtain a phoneme sequence of the speech to be recognized.
Subsequently, the phoneme sequence of the speech to be recognized is decoded. In the decoding process, a proper preset state transition path is searched from an initial node of a decoding network according to the phoneme sequence of the speech to be recognized so as to reach a next node, and the steps are repeated until a termination node is reached. Assuming that the current decoding position of the speech to be recognized is currently decoded, the phoneme sequence of the current decoding position needs to be decoded. Correspondingly, in the decoding network, when the current search reaches the node t, a proper path needs to be found to travel to the next node. At this time, the phoneme sequence at the current decoding position may be decoded based on the preset state transition path corresponding to the previous decoding position, so as to obtain a decoding result at the current decoding position. The preset state transition path corresponding to the previous decoding position is a preset state transition path between the node where the current decoding network is located and the next node, that is, a preset state transition path from the node t. And decoding the phoneme sequence at the current decoding position based on the score of the preset state transition path corresponding to the last decoding position, and selecting one preset state transition path to determine the decoding result at the current decoding position.
Based on any of the above embodiments, fig. 2 is a schematic flow chart of a path expansion method provided by an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, the method includes:
step 210, determining a region noun associated with the region information of the user;
and step 220, expanding a preset state transfer path corresponding to the place name in the decoding network based on each place domain name word.
Specifically, according to the region information of the user, a region noun associated with the region information is determined. The region information can be used as a center to obtain the region terms of other places in the peripheral activity range. For example, the name of a hot spot in the surrounding activity range may be obtained, or the name of a spot that the user has gone to in the surrounding activity range may be obtained as an associated area noun according to the historical positioning information and/or the historical navigation data of the user.
Based on each region noun, the preset state transition path corresponding to the place name in the decoding network can be expanded. Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a region information extended path according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in an upper part of fig. 3, a basic decoding network having a universal location name ($ location) path may be pre-constructed. Besides the universal place name path, a plurality of popular place name paths can be expanded. After obtaining the region term (e.g., meya photoelectric, first research institute) associated with the region information of the user, as shown in the middle part of fig. 3, the preset state transition path corresponding to each region term may be first constructed, where the nodes connected to the preset state transition path corresponding to each region term are the same. Subsequently, as shown in the lower part of fig. 3, the preset state transition path corresponding to each regional noun is extended to the preset state transition path corresponding to the generic name in the basic decoding network.
The method provided by the embodiment of the invention expands the preset state transfer path corresponding to the place name in the decoding network through the place name associated with the user's place information, and performs personalized expansion on the preset state transfer path, thereby being beneficial to improving the accuracy of voice recognition.
Based on any of the above embodiments, fig. 4 is a second schematic flow chart of the path expansion method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 4, the method includes:
step 410, determining similar hotwords corresponding to the phoneme sequence at the current decoding position based on historical input information of the user;
step 420, based on the similar hotword, expanding a preset state transition path corresponding to the previous decoding position.
Specifically, the historical input information of the user may provide the language expression habit of the user, such as words or phrases frequently spoken by the user, and when the phoneme sequence at the current decoding position is the same as or similar to the pronunciation of a part of the words or phrases in the historical input information, it indicates that the user may express the words or phrases, and thus the words or phrases may be expanded into the decoding network. Therefore, in the decoding process, the similar hotword corresponding to the phoneme sequence at the current decoding position can be determined based on the historical input information of the user. Wherein, the similar hotword is a hotword which is in the historical input information of the user and has the same pronunciation or similar pronunciation with the phoneme sequence at the current decoding position.
Based on the obtained similar hotwords, a new preset state transition path can be generated and expanded to the corresponding position of the preset state transition path corresponding to the previous decoding position. Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of a similar hotword expansion path according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 5, a similar hotword corresponding to a phoneme sequence at a current decoding position is "cross", a new path corresponding to the similar hotword is generated, and the new path is inserted into a preset state transition path corresponding to a previous decoding position, so as to implement dynamic expansion of the path.
In the method provided by the embodiment of the invention, the preset state transition path corresponding to the previous decoding position is expanded by using the similar hotword corresponding to the phoneme sequence at the current decoding position in the decoding process, so that the preset state transition path is individually and dynamically expanded, and the accuracy of voice recognition is improved.
Based on any of the above embodiments, fig. 6 is a schematic flowchart of a similar hotword determining method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 6, step 410 includes:
step 411, determining a similar phoneme sequence corresponding to the phoneme sequence at the current decoding position based on the phoneme sequence at the current decoding position and a pre-constructed pronunciation similarity matrix;
step 412, determining similar hotwords corresponding to the phoneme sequence and/or the similar phoneme sequence at the current decoding position based on the hot words of the user; the hotword is determined based on historical input information.
Specifically, the pronunciation similarity matrix may be constructed in advance from a pronunciation dictionary. As shown in fig. 5, the pronunciation similarity matrix may store phoneme sequences with similar pronunciations. And searching in the pronunciation similarity matrix according to the phoneme sequence at the current decoding position to find out a similar phoneme sequence with similar pronunciation to the phoneme sequence at the current decoding position.
Based on the respective hotwords of the user, hotwords whose pronunciations correspond to the phoneme sequence and/or the similar phoneme sequence at the current decoding position are determined therefrom as similar hotwords. Wherein each hotword is determined according to the historical input information of the user. For example, the text information manually input by the user history may be acquired, and according to the frequency input by the user, a word with a higher frequency is screened out as a hotword, and a hotword list of the user is constructed.
Based on any of the above embodiments, step 120 includes:
based on the language model, combining with a preset state transfer path, performing voice recognition decoding on the voice to be recognized;
the language model corresponds to the type of equipment currently used by a user; the language model corresponding to any equipment type is obtained by training based on the application scene text of the equipment type.
In particular, with the popularization of various electronic devices, users often use different electronic devices in different application scenarios. For example, for large-screen electronic devices such as televisions, users usually use voice interaction to perform television station control, network video on demand, and the like; for the intelligent sound box equipment, a user can use voice interaction to perform weather inquiry, song on demand and the like; for the vehicle-mounted computer equipment, more users can use voice interaction to perform address navigation and the like.
Therefore, the application scenes of different device types can be predetermined, the application scene texts under each application scene are collected, and the language model corresponding to the device type is trained based on the application scene texts of each device type for the different types of devices to use in voice recognition. When the speech recognition system used by the electronic device is a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) based recognition system, the above-mentioned language Model refers to a traditional language Model, such as an n-gram based language Model, which can directly replace the language Model in the original speech recognition system; when the speech recognition system used by the electronic device is an Encode-Decode-based recognition system, the language model may be a neural network language model, and the recognition result may be fused with the recognition result of the original speech recognition system by various fusion methods.
And determining the information of the equipment generating the speech to be recognized, such as a mobile phone, a vehicle-mounted computer, a television or an intelligent sound box, and the like, so as to determine the language model corresponding to the equipment. Based on the language model and the preset state transition path, the speech recognition decoding can be carried out on the speech to be recognized. Fig. 7 is a schematic diagram of language model selection according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 7, a language model corresponding to a current device is dynamically selected from language models corresponding to multiple device types according to a device ID of an input voice. The obtained language model can be combined with an acoustic model and also can be combined with an Encode-Decode model to realize voice recognition and obtain a recognition result of input voice.
According to the method provided by the embodiment of the invention, the speech recognition decoding is carried out on the speech to be recognized by dynamically selecting the language model corresponding to the equipment type currently used by the user and combining the preset state transfer path, so that the accuracy of the speech recognition is further improved.
Based on any of the above embodiments, step 120 includes:
determining a voiceprint characteristic of a user;
and based on the preset state transition path, carrying out voice recognition decoding on the voice to be recognized by combining the audio features of the voice to be recognized and the voiceprint features of the user.
Specifically, because different users have different accents and speaking styles, when performing speech recognition, adaptive speech recognition can be performed according to the pronunciation characteristics of the current user to adapt to the speech data of different users, thereby improving the accuracy of speech recognition. Therefore, the voiceprint feature of the current user can be acquired. Wherein the voiceprint feature can express the pronunciation characteristics and pronunciation habits of the user. Here, the identity authentication vector of the current user may be extracted as its voiceprint feature using an existing i-vector extraction model, such as a universal background model UBM. The voiceprint features extracted by the method contain speaker information, channel information and the like, and have high stability. In addition, the voiceprint feature of the user may also be extracted by using an x-vector extraction model under a deep learning framework, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present invention. And then, based on the preset state transition path, combining the audio features of the voice data to be recognized and the voiceprint features of the user, and performing voice recognition decoding on the voice to be recognized. The audio features include semantic information of the voice data, and pronunciation characteristics included in the voiceprint features of the user are combined, so that accuracy of voice recognition for the user can be improved.
According to the method provided by the embodiment of the invention, the voice recognition decoding is carried out on the voice to be recognized by determining the voiceprint characteristics of the user and combining the audio characteristics of the voice to be recognized and the voiceprint characteristics of the user, so that the accuracy of the voice recognition is further improved.

Wherein, individualized discernment reinforcing module includes four: the system comprises a dynamic path expansion module, a dynamic hot word excitation module, a dynamic voice model selection module and a dynamic voiceprint enhancement module.
The dynamic path extension module is configured to extend a preset state transition path corresponding to a place name in a decoding network based on the user region information, where a specific extension manner is the same as that in the foregoing embodiment, and is not described herein again.
The dynamic hot word excitation module is used for constructing a hot word library of the user based on historical input information of the user and carrying out hot word excitation based on the hot word library. If the system is established by an HMM-based recognition model, the dynamic hotword excitation module may be configured to select a similar hotword corresponding to the phoneme sequence at the current decoding position from the hotword library in an actual decoding process, and expand a preset state transition path corresponding to a previous decoding position in the decoding network by using the similar hotword. If the system is established by an Encode-Decode-based recognition model, the dynamic hotword excitation module can represent each hotword as a fixed-dimension hotword code based on a hotword Encoder (Bias Encoder), then selects the hotword code matched with the input voice as output by using the state information output by a Decoder (Decode) at the previous decoding moment through an attention mechanism, and sends the hotword code matched with the input voice and the audio characteristics of the input voice into the Decoder for decoding to obtain a recognition result.
The dynamic voice model selection module is used for dynamically selecting a language model corresponding to the equipment type currently used by the user based on the equipment information of the user so as to perform voice recognition decoding on the voice to be recognized.
The dynamic voiceprint enhancement module is used for determining the voiceprint characteristics of the user and then carrying out voice recognition decoding on the voice to be recognized by combining the audio characteristics of the voice to be recognized and the voiceprint characteristics of the user.
It should be noted that each of the personalized recognition enhancing modules in the speech recognition system may be used alone, or a plurality of modules may be used in combination, so as to improve the accuracy of speech recognition.
