摘要： In connection with speech recognition, the design of a linear transformation θεp×n, of rank p×n, which projects the features of a classifier xεn onto y=θxεp such as to achieve minimum Bayes error (or probability of misclassification). Two avenues are explored: the first is to maximize the θ-average divergence between the class densities and the second is to minimize the union Bhattacharyya bound in the range of θ. While both approaches yield similar performance in practice, they outperform standard linear discriminant analysis features and show a 10% relative improvement in the word error rate over known cepstral features on a large vocabulary telephony speech recognition task.

摘要： Methods and arrangements using lattice-based information for unsupervised speaker adaptation. By performing adaptation against a word lattice, correct models are more likely to be used in estimating a transform. Further, a particular type of lattice proposed herein enables the use of a natural confidence measure given by the posterior occupancy probability of a state, that is, the statistics of a particular state will be updated with the current frame only if the a posteriori probability of the state at that particular time is greater than a predetermined threshold.

摘要： A system and method are provided which partition the feature space of a classifier by using hyperplanes to construct a binary decision tree or hierarchical data structure for obtaining the class probabilities for a particular feature vector. One objective in the construction of the decision tree is to minimize the average entropy of the empirical class distributions at each successive node or subset, such that the average entropy of the class distributions at the terminal nodes is minimized. First, a linear discriminant vector is computed that maximally separates the classes at any particular node. A threshold is then chosen that can be applied on the value of the projection onto the hyperplane such that all feature vectors that have a projection onto the hyperplane that is less than the threshold are assigned to a child node (say, left child node) and the feature vectors that have a projection greater than or equal to the threshold are assigned to a right child node. The above two steps are then repeated for each child node until the data at a node falls below a predetermined threshold and the node is classified as a terminal node (leaf of the decision tree). After all non-terminal nodes have been processed, the final step is to store a class distribution associated with each terminal node. The class probabilities for a particular feature vector can then be obtained by traversing the decision tree in a top-down fashion until a terminal node is identified which corresponds to the particular feature vector. The information provided by the decision tree is that, in computing the class probabilities for the particular feature vector, only the small number of classes associated with that particular terminal node need be considered. Alternatively, the required class probabilities can be obtained simply by taking the stored distribution of the terminal node associated with the particular feature vector.

摘要： A system and method for adaptation of a speaker independent speech recognition system for use by a particular user. The system and method gather acoustic characterization data from a test speaker and compare the data with acoustic characterization data generated for a plurality of training speakers. A match score is computed between the test speaker's acoustic characterization for a particular acoustic subspace and each training speaker's acoustic characterization for the same acoustic subspace. The training speakers are ranked for the subspace according to their scores and a new acoustic model is generated for the test speaker based upon the test speaker's acoustic characterization data and the acoustic characterization data of the closest matching training speakers. The process is repeated for each acoustic subspace.

摘要： A method of forming an augmented textual training corpus with compound words for use with an associated with a speech recognition system includes computing a measure for a consecutive word pair in the training corpus. The measure is then compared to a threshold value. The consecutive word pair is replaced in the training corpus with a corresponding compound word depending on the result of the comparison between the measure and the threshold value. One or more measures may be employed. A first measure is an average of a direct bigram probability value and a reverse bigram probability value. A second measure is based on mutual information between the words in the pair. A third measure is based on a comparison of the number of times a co-articulated baseform for the pair is preferred over a concatenation of non-co-articulated individual baseforms of the words forming the pair. A fourth measure is based on a difference between an average phone recognition score for a particular compound word and a sum of respective average phone recognition scores of the words of the pair.

摘要： A method for recognizing speech includes the steps of providing a generic model having a baseform representation of a vocabulary of words, identifying a subset of words relating to an application, constructing a task specific model for the subset of words, constructing a composite model by combining the generic and task specific models and modifying the baseform representation of the subset of words such that the subset of words are recognized by the task specific model. A system for recognizing speech includes a composite model having a generic model having a generic baseform representation of a vocabulary of words and a task specific model for recognizing a subset of words relating to an application wherein the subset of words are recognized using a modified baseform representation. A recognizer compares words input thereto with the generic model for words other than the subset of words and with the task specific model for the subset of words.
