    Abstract: A method for detecting a hotword includes receiving a sequence of input frames that characterize streaming audio captured by a user device and generating a probability score indicating a presence of a hotword in the streaming audio using a memorized neural network. The network includes sequentially-stacked single value decomposition filter (SVDF) layers and each SVDF layer includes at least one neuron. Each neuron includes a respective memory component, a first stage configured to perform filtering on audio features of each input frame individually and output to the memory component, and a second stage configured to perform filtering on all the filtered audio features residing in the respective memory component. The method also includes determining whether the probability score satisfies a hotword detection threshold and initiating a wake-up process on the user device for processing additional terms.

    Abstract: A method for training hotword detection includes receiving a training input audio sequence including a sequence of input frames that define a hotword that initiates a wake-up process on a device. The method also includes feeding the training input audio sequence into an encoder and a decoder of a memorized neural network. Each of the encoder and the decoder of the memorized neural network include sequentially-stacked single value decomposition filter (SVDF) layers. The method further includes generating a logit at each of the encoder and the decoder based on the training input audio sequence. For each of the encoder and the decoder, the method includes smoothing each respective logit generated from the training input audio sequence, determining a max pooling loss from a probability distribution based on each respective logit, and optimizing the encoder and the decoder based on all max pooling losses associated with the training input audio sequence.

    Abstract: In one example aspect, the present disclosure provides an example computer-implemented method for generating feedback signals for training a machine-learned agent model. The example method can include obtaining an output of a machine-learned agent model, the output including a next state feature generated by the machine-learned agent model based on a sequence of preceding states. The example method can include processing, using a machine-learned reward model, the output and the sequence of preceding states to generate a quality indicator indicating a quality of the next state feature in view of the preceding states. The machine-learned reward model could be trained by retrieving reference data from a reference data source and computing one or more quality indicators in view of a respective training input and output(s), and the reference data. The example method can include outputting the quality indicator to a model trainer for updating the machine-learned agent model.

    Abstract: Teacher-student learning can be used to train a keyword spotting (KWS) model using augmented training instance(s). Various implementations include aggressively augmenting (e.g., using spectral augmentation) base audio data to generate augmented audio data, where one or more portions of the base instance of audio data can be masked in the augmented instance of audio data (e.g., one or more time frames can be masked, one or more frequencies can be masked, etc.). Many implementations include processing augmented audio data using a KWS teacher model to generate a soft label, and processing the augmented audio data using a KWS student model to generate predicted output. One or more portions of the KWS student model can be updated based on a comparison of the soft label and the generated predicted output.
