Time delay neural network

<h2 id="history">History</h2>
The TDNN was introduced in the late 1980s and applied to a task of <a href="/facts/Phoneme/EXGHlJ7a">phoneme</a> classification for automatic <a href="/facts/Speech_recognition/z7S7Pgk6">speech recognition</a> in speech signals where the automatic determination of precise segments or feature boundaries was difficult or impossible. Because the TDNN recognizes phonemes and their underlying acoustic/phonetic features, independent of position in time, it improved performance over static classification.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:2" href="#fn:2">2</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:3" href="#fn:3">3</a> It was also applied to two-dimensional signals (time-frequency patterns in speech,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:4" href="#fn:4">4</a> and coordinate space pattern in OCR<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:5" href="#fn:5">5</a>).
<a href="/facts/Kunihiko_Fukushima/lEjNNvI2">Kunihiko Fukushima</a> published the <a href="/facts/Neocognitron/W7AmETp2">neocognitron</a> in 1980.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:6" href="#fn:6">6</a> <a href="/facts/Max_pooling/kHEdnmGU">Max pooling</a> appears in a 1982 publication on the neocognitron<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:7" href="#fn:7">7</a> and was in the 1989 publication in <a href="/facts/LeNet/DCBPp5qm">LeNet-5</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:8" href="#fn:8">8</a>
In 1990, Yamaguchi et al. used max pooling in TDNNs in order to realize a speaker independent isolated word recognition system.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:9" href="#fn:9">9</a>

<h2 id="overview">Overview</h2>
The Time Delay Neural Network, like other neural networks, operates with multiple interconnected layers of <a href="/facts/Perceptron/ArxdkAC1">perceptrons</a>, and is implemented as a <a href="/facts/Feedforward_neural_network/CP0pPGDF">feedforward neural network</a>. All neurons (at each layer) of a TDNN receive inputs from the outputs of neurons at the layer below but with two differences:

<ol><li>Unlike regular <a href="/facts/Multilayer_perceptron/jkq4t7Gy">Multi-Layer perceptrons</a>, all units in a TDNN, at each layer, obtain inputs from a contextual window of outputs from the layer below. For time varying signals (e.g. speech), each unit has connections to the output from units below but also to the time-delayed (past) outputs from these same units. This models the units' temporal pattern/trajectory. For two-dimensional signals (e.g. time-frequency patterns or images), a 2-D context window is observed at each layer. Higher layers have inputs from wider context windows than lower layers and thus generally model coarser levels of abstraction.</li>
<li>Shift-invariance is achieved by explicitly removing position dependence during <a href="/facts/Backpropagation/lCsIdKHc">backpropagation</a> training. This is done by making time-shifted copies of a network across the dimension of invariance (here: time). The error gradient is then computed by backpropagation through all these networks from an overall target vector, but before performing the weight update, the error gradients associated with shifted copies are averaged and thus shared and constrained to be equal. Thus, all position dependence from backpropagation training through the shifted copies is removed and the copied networks learn the most salient hidden features shift-invariantly, i.e. independent of their precise position in the input data. Shift-invariance is also readily extended to multiple dimensions by imposing similar weight-sharing across copies that are shifted along multiple dimensions.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:10" href="#fn:10">10</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:11" href="#fn:11">11</a></li></ol>
<h3>Example</h3>
In the case of a speech signal, inputs are spectral coefficients over time.
In order to learn critical acoustic-phonetic features (for example formant transitions, bursts, frication, etc.) without first requiring precise localization, the TDNN is trained time-shift-invariantly. Time-shift invariance is achieved through weight sharing across time during training: Time shifted copies of the TDNN are made over the input range (from left to right in Fig.1). Backpropagation is then performed from an overall classification target vector (see TDNN diagram, three phoneme class targets (/b/, /d/, /g/) are shown in the output layer), resulting in gradients that will generally vary for each of the time-shifted network copies. Since such time-shifted networks are only copies, however, the position dependence is removed by weight sharing. In this example, this is done by averaging the gradients from each time-shifted copy before performing the weight update. In speech, time-shift invariant training was shown to learn weight matrices that are independent of precise positioning of the input. The weight matrices could also be shown to detect important acoustic-phonetic features that are known to be important for human speech perception, such as formant transitions, bursts, etc.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:12" href="#fn:12">12</a> TDNNs could also be combined or grown by way of pre-training.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:13" href="#fn:13">13</a>

<h3>Implementation</h3>
The precise architecture of TDNNs (time-delays, number of layers) is mostly determined by the designer depending on the classification problem and the most useful context sizes. The delays or context windows are chosen specific to each application. Work has also been done to create adaptable time-delay TDNNs<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:14" href="#fn:14">14</a> where this manual tuning is eliminated.

<h3>State of the art</h3>
TDNN-based phoneme recognizers compared favourably in early comparisons with HMM-based phone models.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:15" href="#fn:15">15</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:16" href="#fn:16">16</a> Modern deep TDNN architectures include many more hidden layers and sub-sample or pool connections over broader contexts at higher layers. They achieve up to 50% word error reduction over <a href="/facts/Mixture_model/WWe6TJlg">GMM</a>-based acoustic models.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:17" href="#fn:17">17</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:18" href="#fn:18">18</a> While the different layers of TDNNs are intended to learn features of increasing context width, they do model local contexts. When longer-distance relationships and pattern sequences have to be processed, learning states and state-sequences is important and TDNNs can be combined with other modelling techniques.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:19" href="#fn:19">19</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:20" href="#fn:20">20</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:21" href="#fn:21">21</a>

<h2 id="applications">Applications</h2>
<h3>Speech recognition</h3>
TDNNs used to solve problems in speech recognition that were introduced in 1989<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:22" href="#fn:22">22</a> and initially focused on shift-invariant phoneme recognition. Speech lends itself nicely to TDNNs as spoken sounds are rarely of uniform length and precise segmentation is difficult or impossible. By scanning a sound over past and future, the TDNN is able to construct a model for the key elements of that sound in a time-shift invariant manner. This is particularly useful as sounds are smeared out through reverberation.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:23" href="#fn:23">23</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:24" href="#fn:24">24</a> Large phonetic TDNNs can be constructed modularly through pre-training and combining smaller networks.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:25" href="#fn:25">25</a>

<h3>Large vocabulary speech recognition</h3>
Large vocabulary speech recognition requires recognizing sequences of phonemes that make up words subject to the constraints of a large pronunciation vocabulary. Integration of TDNNs into large vocabulary speech recognizers is possible by introducing state transitions and search between phonemes that make up a word. The resulting Multi-State Time-Delay Neural Network (MS-TDNN) can be trained discriminative from the word level, thereby optimizing the entire arrangement toward word recognition instead of phoneme classification.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:26" href="#fn:26">26</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:27" href="#fn:27">27</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:28" href="#fn:28">28</a>

<h3>Speaker independence</h3>
Two-dimensional variants of the TDNNs were proposed for speaker independence.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:29" href="#fn:29">29</a> Here, shift-invariance is applied to the time as well as to the frequency axis in order to learn hidden features that are independent of precise location in time and in frequency (the latter being due to speaker variability).

<h3>Reverberation</h3>
One of the persistent problems in speech recognition is recognizing speech when it is corrupted by echo and reverberation (as is the case in large rooms and distant microphones). Reverberation can be viewed as corrupting speech with delayed versions of itself. In general, it is difficult, however, to de-reverberate a signal as the impulse response function (and thus the convolutional noise experienced by the signal) is not known for any arbitrary space. The TDNN was shown to be effective to recognize speech robustly despite different levels of reverberation.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:30" href="#fn:30">30</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:31" href="#fn:31">31</a>

<h3>Lip-reading – audio-visual speech</h3>
TDNNs were also successfully used in early demonstrations of audio-visual speech, where the sounds of speech are complemented by visually reading lip movement.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:32" href="#fn:32">32</a> Here, TDNN-based recognizers used visual and acoustic features jointly to achieve improved recognition accuracy, particularly in the presence of noise, where complementary information from an alternate modality could be fused nicely in a neural net.

<h3>Handwriting recognition</h3>
TDNNs have been used effectively in compact and high-performance <a href="/facts/Handwriting_recognition/RgdyWtDQ">handwriting recognition</a> systems. Shift-invariance was also adapted to spatial patterns (x/y-axes) in image offline handwriting recognition.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:33" href="#fn:33">33</a>

<h3>Video analysis</h3>
Video has a temporal dimension that makes a TDNN an ideal solution to analysing motion patterns. An example of this analysis is a combination of vehicle detection and recognizing pedestrians.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:34" href="#fn:34">34</a> When examining videos, subsequent images are fed into the TDNN as input where each image is the next frame in the video. The strength of the TDNN comes from its ability to examine objects shifted in time forward and backward to define an object detectable as the time is altered. If an object can be recognized in this manner, an application can plan on that object to be found in the future and perform an optimal action.

<h3>Image recognition</h3>
Two-dimensional TDNNs were later applied to other image-recognition tasks under the name of "<a href="/facts/Convolutional_neural_network/kHEdnmGU">Convolutional Neural Networks</a>", where shift-invariant training is applied to the x/y axes of an image.

<h3>Common libraries</h3>
