Search for: [Description = "For the past few years, artificial neural networks \(ANNs\) have been one of the most common solutions relied upon while developing automated speech recognition \(ASR\) acoustic models. There are several variants of ANNs, such as deep neural networks \(DNNs\), recurrent neural networks \(RNNs\), and convolutional neural networks \(CNNs\). A CNN model is widely used as a method for improving image processing performance. In recent years, CNNs have also been utilized in ASR techniques, and this paper investigates the preliminary result of an end\-to\-end CNN\-based ASR using NVIDIA NeMo on the Iban corpus, an under\-resourced language. Studies have shown that CNNs have also managed to produce excellent word error \(WER\) rates for the acoustic model on ASR for speech data. Conversely, results and studies concerned with under\-resourced languages remain unsatisfactory. Hence, by using NVIDIA NeMo, a new ASR engine developed by NVIDIA, the viability and the potential of this alternative approach are evaluated in this paper. Two experiments were conducted\: the number of resources used in the works of our ASR’s training was manipulated, as was the internal parameter of the engine used, namely the epochs. The results of those experiments are then analyzed and compared with the results shown in existing papers."]
