摘要翻译：
时延神经网络（TDNNs）是一种有效的大词汇量语音识别声学模型。该模型的强大之处在于它能够有效地对长时间上下文进行建模。然而，目前的TDNN模型比较浅，限制了其建模能力。本文提出了一种通过深化TDNN时域卷积核来增加网络深度的方法。性能最好的内核由三个完全连接的层组成，从第一个层的输出到第三个层的输出之间有一个剩余（ResNet）连接。研究了在TDNN中加入光谱-时间处理作为输入，形成卷积神经网络(CNN)和新设计的Grid-RNN。如果使用不同频带的不同参数集，则Grid-RNN的性能强于CNN，并且可以通过使用双向Grid-RNN来进一步增强。用多体裁广播(MGB3)英文数据(275h)进行的实验表明，深度核TDNNs相对降低了6%的误字率，与频率相关的Grid-RNN相结合，误字率相对降低了9%。

英文摘要：
  Time delay neural networks (TDNNs) are an effective acoustic model for large vocabulary speech recognition. The strength of the model can be attributed to its ability to effectively model long temporal contexts. However, current TDNN models are relatively shallow, which limits the modelling capability. This paper proposes a method of increasing the network depth by deepening the kernel used in the TDNN temporal convolutions. The best performing kernel consists of three fully connected layers with a residual (ResNet) connection from the output of the first to the output of the third. The addition of spectro-temporal processing as the input to the TDNN in the form of a convolutional neural network (CNN) and a newly designed Grid-RNN was investigated. The Grid-RNN strongly outperforms a CNN if different sets of parameters for different frequency bands are used and can be further enhanced by using a bi-directional Grid-RNN. Experiments using the multi-genre broadcast (MGB3) English data (275h) show that deep kernel TDNNs reduces the word error rate (WER) by 6% relative and when combined with the frequency dependent Grid-RNN gives a relative WER reduction of 9%.
