| Abstract: | We cast the problem of query by example spoken term detection (QbE-STD) as subspace detection where query and background are modeled as a union of low-dimensional subspaces. The speech exemplars used for subspace modeling consist of class-conditional posterior probabilities obtained from deep neural network (DNN). The query and background training exemplars are exploited to model the underlying low-dimensional subspaces through dictionary learning and sparse coding. Given the dictionaries characterizing the query and background speech, QbE-STD amounts to subspace detection via sparse representation and the reconstruction error is used for binary classification. Furthermore, we rigorously investigate the relationship between the proposed method and the generalized likelihood ratio test. The experimental evaluation demonstrate that the proposed method is able to detect the query given a single exemplar and performs significantly better than one of the best QbE-STD baseline systems based on template matching. |
