NVIDIA has consistently developed automatic speech recognition (ASR) models that set the benchmark in the industry. Earlier versions of NVIDIA Riva, a collection of GPU-accelerated speech and translation AI microservices for ASR, TTS, and NMT, support English-Spanish and English-Japanese code-switching ASR models based on the Conformer architecture, along with a model supporting multiple…
]]>NVIDIA NIM, part of NVIDIA AI Enterprise, provides containers to self-host GPU-accelerated inferencing microservices for pretrained and customized AI models across clouds, data centers, and workstations. NIM microservices for speech and translation are now available. The new speech and translation microservices leverage NVIDIA Riva and provide automatic speech recognition (ASR)…
]]>From start-ups to large enterprises, businesses use cloud marketplaces to find the new solutions needed to quickly transform their businesses. Cloud marketplaces are online storefronts where customers can purchase software and services with flexible billing models, including pay-as-you-go, subscriptions, and privately negotiated offers. Businesses further benefit from committed spending at…
]]>As the global service economy grows, companies rely increasingly on contact centers to drive better customer experiences, increase customer satisfaction, and lower costs with increased efficiencies. Customer demand has increased far more rapidly than contact center employment ever could. Combined with the high agent churn rate, customer demand creates a need for more automated real-time customer…
]]>This post was updated in March 2023. Sign up for the latest Speech AI news from NVIDIA. Speech AI is used in a variety of applications, including contact centers’ agent assists for empowering human agents, voice interfaces for intelligent virtual assistants (IVAs), and live captioning in video conferencing. To support these features, speech AI technology includes automatic speech recognition…
]]>Learn to train an end-to-end TTS system and track experiments in this live workshop on December 8. Set up the environment, review code blocks, test the model, and more.
]]>When examining an intricate speech AI robotic system, it’s easy for developers to feel intimidated by its complexity. Arthur C. Clarke claimed, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” From accepting natural-language commands to safely interacting in real-time with its environment and the humans around it, today’s speech AI robotics systems can perform tasks to…
