Piecewise HMM discriminative training
This paper address the problem of training HMMs using long files of uninterrupted speech with limited and constant memory requirements. The classical training algorithms usually require limited duration training utterances due to memory constraints for storing the generated trellis. Our solution allows to exploits databases that are transcribed, but not partitioned into sentences, using a slidi...
متن کاملPerformance of Discriminative HMM Training in Noise
In this study, discriminative HMM training and its performance are investigated in both clean and noisy environments. Recognition error is defined at string, word, phone, and acoustic levels and treated in a unified framework in discriminative training. With an acoustic level, high-resolution error measurement, a discriminative criterion of minimum divergence (MD) is proposed. Using speaker-ind...
متن کاملA comparison of hybrid HMM architectures using global discriminative training
This paper presents a comparison of di erent model architectures for TIMIT phoneme recognition. The baseline is a conventional diagonal covariance Gaussian mixture HMM. This system is compared to two di erent hybrid MLP/HMMs, both adhering to the same restrictions regarding input context and output states as the Gaussian mixtures. All free parameters in the three systems are jointly optimised u...
متن کاملThe cascade HMM/ANN hybrid: A new framework for discriminative training in speech recognition
In this paper, a new formulation for discriminative training of HMMs is presented. This formulation uses a properly trained MLP in a simple interconnection with HMMs called “Cascade HMM/ANN Hybrid”. Our training algorithm has simple realization in comparison with other discriminative training for HMMs such as MDI and MMI. We also present a rigid mathematical proof of its convergence. We found t...
متن کاملError - weighted discriminative training for HMM parameter estimation
Optimizing discriminative objectives in HMM parameter training proved to outperform Maximum Likelihood-based parameter estimation in numerous studies. This paper extends the Maximum Mutual Information objective by applying utterance specific weighting factors that are adjusted for minimum sentence error. In addition to that, the paper investigates tuning separate numerator and denominator weigh...
