Abstract: Implementations relate to a multimodal translation application that can provide an abridged version of a translation through an audio interface of a computing device, while simultaneously providing a verbatim textual translation at a display interface of the computing device. The application can provide these different versions of the translation in certain circumstances when, for example, the rate of speech of a person speaking to a user is relatively high compared to a preferred rate of speech of the user. For example, a comparison between phonemes of an original language speech and a translated language speech can be performed to determine whether the ratio satisfies a threshold for providing an audible abridged translation. A determination to provide the abridged translation can additionally or alternatively be based on a determined language of the speaker.

Abstract: The technology provides an approach to train translation models that are robust to transcription errors and punctuation errors. The approach includes introducing errors from actual automatic speech recognition and automatic punctuation systems into the source side of the machine translation training data. A method for training a machine translation model includes performing automatic speech recognition on input source audio to generate a system transcript. The method aligns a human transcript of the source audio to the system transcript, including projecting system segmentation onto the human transcript. Then the method performs segment robustness training of a machine translation model according to the aligned human and system transcripts, and performs system robustness training of the machine translation model, e.g., by injecting token errors into training data.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, that facilitate generating stable real-time textual translations in a target language of an input audio data stream that is recorded in a source language. An audio stream that is recorded in a first language is obtained. A partial transcription of the audio can be generated at each time interval in a plurality of successive time intervals. Each partial transcription can be translated into a second language that is different from the first language. Each translated partial transcription can be input to a model that determines whether a portion of an input translated partial transcription is stable. Based on the input translated partial transcription, the model identifies a portion of the translated partial transcription that is predicted to be stable. This stable portion of the translated partial transcription is provided for display on a user device.

Abstract: A method includes receiving a reference audio signal corresponding to reference speech spoken by a target speaker with atypical speech, and generating, by a speaker embedding network configured to receive the reference audio signal as input, a speaker embedding for the target speaker. The speaker embedding conveys speaker characteristics of the target speaker. The method also includes receiving a speech conversion request that includes input audio data corresponding to an utterance spoken by the target speaker associated with the atypical speech. The method also includes biasing, using the speaker embedding generated for the target speaker by the speaker embedding network, a speech conversion model to convert the input audio data corresponding to the utterance spoken by the target speaker associated with atypical speech into an output canonical representation of the utterance spoken by the target speaker.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for performing tasks. One of the methods includes obtaining a sequence of input tokens, where each token is selected from a vocabulary of tokens that includes text tokens and audio tokens, and wherein the sequence of input tokens includes tokens that describe a task to be performed and data for performing the task; generating a sequence of embeddings by embedding each token in the sequence of input tokens in an embedding space; and processing the sequence of embeddings using a language model neural network to generate a sequence of output tokens for the task, where each token is selected from the vocabulary.
