Whisper-AT: Noise-Robust Automatic Speech Recognizers are Also Strong General Audio Event Taggers
Open accessAbstract
In this paper, we focus on Whisper, a recent automatic speech recognition model trained with a massive 680k hour labeled speech corpus recorded in diverse conditions. We first show an interesting finding that while Whisper is very robust against real-world background sounds (e.g., music), its audio representation is actually not noise-invariant, but is instead highly correlated to non-speech sounds, indicating that Whisper recognizes speech conditioned on the noise type. With this finding, we build a unified audio tagging and speech recognition model Whisper-AT by freezing the backbone of Whisper, and training a lightweight audio tagging model on top of it. With <1% extra computational cost, Whisper-AT can recognize audio events, in addition to spoken text, in a single forward pass.

Adopting Whisper and TLTR as the audio encoder instead of the AST audio encoder in LTU enables LTU-AS to recognize both speech and audio events.
“This change enables LTU-AS to recognize both speech and audio events.”
From Joint Audio and Speech Understanding (2023) · cites this paper as [3]
Section 4, “Unifying ASR and Audio Tagging Model,” says that adding audio-tagging layers to Whisper enables Whisper-AT to produce spoken text and sound labels in one forward pass. The paper also evaluates a TL-Tr tagging model, but it does not study LTU-AS or show that replacing LTU’s AST encoder enables that specific model to recognize both. (LLM, conf=0.82)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe Whisper encoder encodes rich audio events and speech paralinguistic information, but it encodes information in the representations of different layers.
“although the Whisper encoder encodes rich audio events and speech paralinguistic information [3,15,16], it encodes information in the representations of different layers.”
From Joint Audio and Speech Understanding (2023) · cites this paper as [3]
Section 3 reports that Whisper’s intermediate representations encode non-speech background sounds, and the Figure 3 caption says different sound classes are best represented at different layers. The cited paper does not establish the attributed claim about speech paralinguistic information. (LLM, conf=0.86)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe Whisper encoder features not only encode linguistic information, but also encode rich general background sound information and paralinguistic and other information such as emotion and language development.
“it was found that the Whisper encoder features not only encode linguistic information, but also encode rich general background sound information [3] and paralinguistic and other information (e.g., emotion [15] and language development [16]).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
