Voice recognition system using implicit speaker adaption

摘要

A voice recognition (VR) system is disclosed that utilizes a combination of speaker independent (SI) and speaker dependent (SD) acoustic models. At least one SI acoustic model is used in combination with at least one SD acoustic model to provide a level of speech recognition performance that at least equals that of a purely SI acoustic model. The disclosed hybrid SI/SD VR system continually uses unsupervised training to update the acoustic templates in the one or more SD acoustic models. The hybrid VR system then uses the updated SD acoustic models in combination with the at least one SI acoustic model to provide improved VR performance during VR testing
