Zusammenfassung: | Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for training adaptation-specific acoustic models. A system practicing the method receives speech and generates a full size model and a reduced size model, the reduced size model starting with a single distribution for each speech sound in the received speech. The system finds speech segment boundaries in the speech using the full size model and adapts features of the speech data using the reduced size model based on the speech segment boundaries and an overall centroid for each speech sound. The system then recognizes speech using the adapted features of the speech. The model can be a Hidden Markov Model (HMM). The reduced size model can also be of a reduced complexity, such as having fewer mixture components than a model of full complexity. Adapting features of speech can include moving the features closer to an overall feature distribution center. |
