Do End-to-End Speech Recognition Models Care About Context?

Corti

The two most common paradigms for end-to-end speech recognition are connectionist temporal classification (CTC) and attention-based encoder-decoder (AED) models. It has been argued that the latter is better suited for learning an implicit language model. In this paper, this hypothesis is tested by measuring temporal context-sensitivity and it is evaluated how the models perform when the amount of contextual information is constrained in the audio input.
