Although MLLR uses multiple transforms according to regression classes, only a single linear transform is applied to each state. The proposed method performs nonlinear speaker adaptation based on a new likelihood function combining HMMs for recognition with GMMs for spectral transform. Moreover, the dependency of transforms on context can also be estimated in an integrated ML fashion. The proposed technique outperformed conventional approaches in phoneme-recognition experiments., 26-30 September 2010, Makuhari, Chiba, Japan}, pages = {542--545}, publisher = {International Speech Communication Association}, title = {Speaker Adaptation Based on Nonlinear Spectral Transform for Speech Recognition}, year = {2010}, yomi = {ナンカク, ヨシヒコ} }
