In the `missing data' approach to improving the robustness of automatic speech recognition to added noise, an initial process identifies spectraltemporal regions which are do...
We address the question of whether and how boosting and bagging can be used for speech recognition. In order to do this, we compare two different boosting schemes, one at the pho...
We propose a new optimization algorithm called Generalized Baum Welch (GBW) algorithm for discriminative training on hidden Markov model (HMM). GBW is based on Lagrange relaxation...
Spelling speech recognition can be applied for several purposes including enhancement of speech recognition systems and implementation of name retrieval systems. This paper presen...
In this paper we address the problem of building a good speech recognizer if there is only a small amount of training data available. The acoustic models can be improved by interpo...
