SHARED SPEECH PROCESSING NETWORK FOR MULTIPLE SPEECH APPLICATIONS: abstract simplified (18324622)

The abstract describes a device that can process speech. It consists of a speech processing network that takes in audio data as input. This network has multiple layers that analyze the audio data and produce a network output. The device also includes multiple speech application modules that can receive this network output as a common input. In simpler terms, the device can take in speech, analyze it, and provide the analyzed information to different speech applications.
