摘要:

基础模型范式利用共享的基础模型,以最少的下游特定建模和数据标注实现各种任务的最先进(SOTA)性能。这种方法在自然语言处理(NLP)领域已被证明至关重要。然而,语音处理社区缺乏类似的设置来系统地探索这一范式。在这项工作中,我们建立了语音处理通用性能基准(SUPERB),以研究该范式在语音处理中的有效性。我们提出了一个统一的多任务框架,使用冻结的基础模型加上任务专用的轻量级预测头来处理SUPERB中的语音处理任务。结合我们的结果和社区提交的结果,我们验证了基础模型范式在语音处理中极具前景,且我们的多任务框架简单而有效,因为表现最佳的基础模型在大多数SUPERB任务中展现出竞争力的泛化能力。为了可复现性和可扩展性,我们开发了一个长期维护的平台,该平台支持确定性基准测试,允许通过在线排行榜共享结果,并通过社区驱动的基准数据库促进协作,以支持新的开发周期。最后,我们进行了一系列分析,以深入理解SUPERB和语音基础模型,包括模型内部跨任务的信息流、加权求和基准测试协议的正确性,以及基准测试的统计显著性和鲁棒性。

英文摘要:

The foundation model paradigm leverages a shared foundation model to achieve state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance for various tasks, requiring minimal downstream-specific modeling and data annotation. This approach has proven crucial in the field of Natural Language Processing (NLP). However, the speech processing community lacks a similar setup to explore the paradigm systematically. In this work, we establish the Speech processing Universal PERformance Benchmark (SUPERB) to study the effectiveness of the paradigm for speech. We propose a unified multi-tasking framework to address speech processing tasks in SUPERB using a frozen foundation model followed by task-specialized, lightweight prediction heads. Combining our results with community submissions, we verify that the foundation model paradigm is promising for speech, and our multi-tasking framework is simple yet effective, as the best-performing foundation model shows competitive generalizability across most SUPERB tasks. For reproducibility and extensibility, we have developed a long-term maintained platform that enables deterministic benchmarking, allows for result sharing via an online leaderboard, and promotes collaboration through a community-driven benchmark database to support new development cycles. Finally, we conduct a series of analyses to offer an in-depth understanding of SUPERB and speech foundation models, including information flows across tasks inside the models, the correctness of the weighted-sum benchmarking protocol and the statistical significance and robustness of the benchmark.
