Speaker Model Adaptation Based on Confidence Score

نویسنده

  • Erhan Mengusoglu
چکیده

Original scientific paper Confidence measures are expected to give a measure of reliability on the result of a speech/speaker recognition system. Most commonly used confidence measures are based on posterior word or phoneme probabilities which can be obtained from the output of the recognizer. In this paper we introduced a linear interpretation of posterior probability based confidence measure by using inverse Fisher transformation. Speaker adaptation consists in updating model parameters of a speaker independent model to have a better representation of the current speaker. Confidence measures give more reliable selection criteria to select the utterances which best represent the speaker. A linear interpretation of confidence measure is very important to select the most representative data for adaptation.

Speaker Adaptation in Continuous Speech Recognition Using MLLR-Based MAP Estimation

A variety of methods are used for speaker adaptation in speech recognition. In some techniques, such as MAP estimation, only the models with available training data are updated. Hence, large amounts of training data are required in order to have significant recognition improvements. In some others, such as MLLR, where several general transformations are applied to model clusters, the results ar...

Combining continuous progressive model adaptation and factor analysis for speaker verification

This paper proposes a novel technique of incorporating factor-analysis-based inter-session variability (ISV) modelling in speaker verification systems that employ continuous progressive speaker model adaptation. Continuous model adaptation involves the use of all encountered trials in the adaptation process through the assignment of confidence measures. The proposed approach incorporates these ...

Speaker adaptation based on confidence-weighted training

This paper presents a novel method to enhance the performance of traditional speaker adaptation algorithm using discriminative adaptation procedure based on a novel confidence measure and non-linear weighting. Regardless of the distribution of the adaptation data, traditional model adaptation methods incorporate the adaptation data undiscriminatingly. When the data size is small and the paramet...
