title: Jointly Trained Transformers Models for Spoken Language Translation
abstract: End-to-End and cascade (ASR-MT) spoken language translation (SLT) systems are reaching comparable performances, however, a large degradation is observed when translating the ASR hypothesis in comparison to using oracle input text. In this work, degradation in performance is reduced by creating an End-to-End differentiable pipeline between the ASR and MT systems. In this work, we train SLT systems with ASR objective as an auxiliary loss and both the networks are connected through the neural hidde
