Query: Multilingual and crosslingual speech recognition using
  phonological-vector based phone embeddings   The use of phonological features (PFs) potentially allows language-specific
phones to remain linked in training, which is highly desirable for information
sharing for multilingual and crosslingual speech recognition methods for
low-resourced languages. A drawback suffered by previous methods in using
phonological features is that the acoustic-to-PF extraction in a bottom-up way
is itself difficult. In this paper, we propose to join phonology driven phone
embedding (top-down) and deep neural network (DNN) based acoustic feature
extraction (bottom-up) to calculate phone probabilities. The new method is
called JoinAP (Joining of Acoustics and Phonology). Remarkably, no inversion
from acoustics to phonological features is required for speech recognition. For
each phone in the IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) table, we encode its
phonological features to a phonological-vector, and then apply linear or
nonlinear transformation of the phonological-vector to obtain the phone
embedding. A series of multilingual and crosslingual (both zero-shot and
few-shot) speech recognition experiments are conducted on the CommonVoice
dataset (German, French, Spanish and Italian) and the AISHLL-1 dataset
(Mandarin), and demonstrate the superiority of JoinAP with nonlinear phone
embeddings over both JoinAP with linear phone embeddings and the traditional
method with flat phone embeddings.
