This paper proposes an instantaneous speaker adaptation method that uses N-best decoding for continuous mixture-density hidden-Markovmodel-based speech-recognition systems. This method is effective even for speakers whose decoding using speaker-independent (SI) models are error-prone and for whom sp

This paper presents an approach of automatic selection of phonetically distributed sentence sets for speaker adaptation, and applies the concept to the task of Mandarin speech recognition with very large vocabulary. This is a different approach to the adaptation data selection problem. A computer al
One problem faced by some model adaptation techniques is that only the parameters of those models which are observed in the adaptation data are updated. Hence, with small amounts of adaptation data most of the system parameters remain unchanged. In this paper, a technique called regression-based mod
