title: MULTI-CHANNEL MULTI-SPEAKER ASR USING 3D SPATIAL FEATURE
abstract: Automatic speech recognition (ASR) of multi-channel multi-speaker overlapped speech remains one of the most challenging tasks to the speech community. In this paper, we look into this challenge by utilizing the location information of target speakers in the 3D space for the first time. To explore the strength of proposed the 3D spatial feature, two paradigms are investigated. 1) a pipelined system with a multi-channel speech separation module followed by the state-of-the-art single-channel ASR m
