title: Leveraging Text Data Using Hybrid Transformer-LSTM Based End-to-End ASR in Transfer Learning
abstract: In this work, we study leveraging extra text data to improve low-resource end-to-end ASR under cross-lingual transfer learning setting. To this end, we extend our prior work [1], and propose a hybrid Transformer-LSTM based architecture. This architecture not only takes advantage of the highly effective encoding capacity of the Transformer network but also benefits from extra text data due to the LSTM-based independent language model network. We conduct experiments on our in-house Malay corpus wh
