Abstract

Aiming to address the low localization accuracy of existing spoken term detection methods, a spoken term detection and fine-grained localization method based on multi-scale distance matrices (MF-STD) is proposed. This method first employs a residual convolutional network to extract features and construct a distance matrix to model the correlation between inputs. Then, it learns the localization information at different scales through multi-scale segmentation and decoupling heads. Finally, the model is optimized according to the multi-scale weighted localization loss, confidence loss, and classification loss. This enables the model to achieve fine-grained prediction of keyword existence and time domain boundaries. Experimental results on the LibriSpeech dataset demonstrate that for in-vocabulary detection, the precision and intersection over union (IoU) reach 97.1% and 88.6%, respectively. In the case of out-of-vocabulary detection, the precision and IoU reach 96.7% and 88.2%, respectively. In comparison to existing methods for spoken term detection and localization, MF-STD significantly improves detection accuracy and localization precision. This fully demonstrates the superiority of the proposed method and the effectiveness of multi-scale feature modeling and fine-grained localization constraints in spoken term detection tasks.
