How Alibaba’s DFSMN Model Pushes Speech Recognition Accuracy to 96.04%

Alibaba DAMO Academy’s Machine Intelligence Lab has released the next‑generation speech‑recognition model DFSMN, achieving a world‑record 96.04% accuracy on the LibriSpeech benchmark.

The model is open‑sourced on GitHub (https://github.com/tramphero/kaldi) and, compared with the widely used LSTM models, offers faster training and higher recognition accuracy. Devices using DFSMN can train three times faster and recognize speech twice as quickly.

At the recent Cloud Xi conference in Wuhan, an “AI cashier” equipped with DFSMN accurately handled voice orders in a noisy environment, processing 34 coffee orders in 49 seconds. The technology has also been deployed in Shanghai Metro ticket machines.

Professor Xie Lei, a leading speech‑recognition expert from Northwestern Polytechnical University, praised DFSMN as a breakthrough that significantly improves accuracy and represents one of the most impactful deep‑learning achievements in the field.
