Abstract

See full text

In a speaker adaptation method for speech models, input speech is transformed to a feature parameter sequence like a cepstral sequence, and N model sequences of maximum likelihood for the feature parameter sequence are extracted from speaker-independent speech HMMs by an N-best hypothesis extraction method. The extracted model sequences are each provisionally adapted to maximize its likelihood for the feature parameter sequence of the input speech while changing the HMM parameters of each sequence, and that one of the provisionally adapted model sequences which has the maximum likelihood for the feature parameter sequence of the input speech is selected and speech models of the selected sequence are provided as adapted HMMs of the speaker to be recognized.
