Speech Frame

A speech frame represents a short segment of speech, typically 10-30 milliseconds, used as a fundamental unit in speech analysis and recognition. Current research focuses on improving the efficiency and accuracy of speech frame processing, particularly within self-supervised learning models like HuBERT, employing techniques such as attention map reusing and masking distillation to compress large transformer-based architectures. These advancements aim to enhance the performance of various speech technologies, including automatic speech recognition (ASR) and text-to-speech (TTS), while reducing computational demands and making them more accessible for wider applications. The development of more efficient and interpretable models for speech frame analysis is crucial for advancing the field and improving the robustness of speech-related applications.
