Abstract

This work aims to design a low complexity spoken command recognition (SCR) system by considering different trade-offs between the number of model parameters and classification accuracy. More specifically, we exploit a deep hybrid architecture of a tensor-train (TT) network to build an end-to-end SRC pipeline. Our command recognition system, namely CNN+(TT-DNN), is composed of convolutional layers at the bottom for spectral feature extraction and TT layers at the top for command classification. Compared with a traditional end-to-end CNN baseline for SCR, our proposed CNN+(TT-DNN) model replaces fully connected (FC) layers with TT ones and it can substantially reduce the number of model parameters while maintaining the baseline performance of the CNN model. We initialize the CNN+(TT-DNN) model in a randomized manner or based on a well-trained CNN+DNN, and assess the CNN+(TT-DNN) models on the Google Speech Command Dataset. Our experimental results show that the proposed CNN+(TT-DNN) model attains a competitive accuracy of 96.31% with 4 times fewer model parameters than the CNN model. Furthermore, the CNN+(TT-DNN) model can obtain a 97.2% accuracy when the number of parameters is increased.

Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1 Technical Report

Recently, large language model (LLM) based ASR models have achieved significant progress, yet they generally lack support for multi-speaker scenarios, where the cocktail party problem remains a critical bottleneck for further advancing ASR. Existing TS-ASR methods, including end-to-end architectures with speaker embeddings and latest LLM-based explorations suffer from degraded single-speaker performance and the inability to reject when the target speaker is absent. In this paper, we propose Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1, an LLM-based end-to-end TS-ASR architecture. By utilizing reference speech as voiceprint prompts, it directly transcribes the target speaker's speech without requiring speech separation. Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1 maintains competitive performance in single-speaker scenarios, comparable to mainstream ASR models. It also features a negative sample rejection capability, outputting empty text when the target speaker is absent from the mixed speech. Additionally, Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1 supports a Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning mode to provide explicit reasoning steps. Extensive experiments on various synthetic and real-world multispeaker benchmarks demonstrate that Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1 achieves state-of-the-art performance, effectively addressing the cocktail party problem through a unified architecture that balances multispeaker and single-speaker recognition accuracy, along with rejection capability.

EConv-TasNet: Efficient Conv-TasNet for Effective Speech Separation

Conv-TasNet has served as a strong baseline for time-domain speech separation, and many studies have extended it with advanced architectures such as dual-path networks, U-Nets, and attention mechanisms. However, these methods often introduce high computational cost and complexity, limiting their deployment in resource-constrained scenarios. To address this issue, we propose eConv-TasNet, an efficient variant of Conv-TasNet that improves both effectiveness and efficiency without relying on resource-intensive modules. The proposed model consists of a group-wise early-splitting (GES) module and a multi-group feature aggregation (MGFA) module. GES generates discriminative speaker embeddings at intermediate stages, while MGFA progressively aggregates these group-level representations for refined mask estimation. Experimental results show that eConv-TasNet reduces model size by 22.4%, accelerates inference by 18.9%, and improves SI-SNRi by 14.0%-28.0% across three public benchmarks. Moreover, it achieves competitive performance compared with state-of-the-art methods while requiring significantly fewer parameters and lower inference cost. These results demonstrate a favorable efficiency-effectiveness trade-off for edge deployment.
