Abstract
- A Multilingual Keyword Spotting (KWS) system detects spokenkeywords over multiple locales. Conventional monolingual KWSapproaches do not scale well to multilingual scenarios because ofhigh development/maintenance costs and lack of resource sharing.To overcome this limit, we propose two locale-conditioned universalmodels with locale feature concatenation and feature-wise linearmodulation (FiLM). We compare these models with two baselinemethods: locale-specific monolingual KWS, and a single universalmodel trained over all data. Experiments over 10 localized languagedatasets show that locale-conditioned models substantially improveaccuracy over baseline methods across all locales in different noiseconditions.FiLMperformed the best, improving on average FRRby 61% (relative) compared to monolingual KWS models of similarsizes.<br />Comment: Accepted for ICASSP 2023
