Abstract

The cost of annotating transcriptions for large speech corpora becomes a bottleneck to maximally enjoy the potential capacity of deep neural network-based automatic speech recognition models. In this paper, we present a new training pipeline boosting the conventional active learning approach targeting label-efficient learning to resolve the mentioned problem. Existing active learning methods only focus on selecting a set of informative samples under a labeling budget. One step further, we suggest that the training efficiency can be further improved by utilizing the unlabeled samples, exceeding the labeling budget, by introducing sophisticatedly configured unsupervised loss complementing supervised loss effectively. We propose new unsupervised loss based on consistency regularization, and we configure appropriate augmentation techniques for utterances to adopt consistency regularization in the automatic speech recognition task. From the qualitative and quantitative experiments on the re
