Improved discriminative training techniques for large vocabulary continuous speech recognition
This paper investigates the use of discriminative training techniques for large vocabulary speech recogntion with training datasets up to 265 hours. Techniques for improving lattice-based Maximum Mutual Information Estimation (MMIE) training are described and compared to Frame Discrimination (FD). An objective function which is an interpolation of MMIE and standard Maximum Likelihood Estimation...
متن کاملPinched lattice minimum Bayes risk discriminative training for large vocabulary continuous speech recognition
Iterative estimation procedures that minimize empirical risk based on general loss functions such as the Levenshtein distance have been derived as extensions of the Extended Baum Welch algorithm. While reducing expected loss on training data is a desirable training criterion, these algorithms can be difficult to apply. They are unlike MMI estimation in that they require an explicit listing of t...
متن کاملLattice segmentation and minimum Bayes risk discriminative training for large vocabulary continuous speech recognition
Lattice segmentation techniques developed for Minimum Bayes Risk decoding in large vocabulary speech recognition tasks are used to compute the statistics needed for discriminative training algorithms that estimate HMM parameters so as to reduce the overall risk over the training data. New estimation procedures are developed and evaluated for both small and large vocabulary recognition tasks, an...
متن کاملImproved Minimum Phone Error based Discriminative Training of Acoustic Models for Mandarin Large Vocabulary Continuous Speech Recognition
This paper considers minimum phone error (MPE) based discriminative training of acoustic models for Mandarin broadcast news recognition. We present a new phone accuracy function based on the frame-level accuracy of hypothesized phone arcs instead of using the raw phone accuracy function of MPE training. Moreover, a novel data selection approach based on the frame-level normalized entropy of Gau...
متن کاملLarge Scale Discriminative Training for Speech Recognition
This paper describes, and evaluates on a large scale, the lattice based framework for discriminative training of large vocabulary speech recognition systems based on Gaussian mixture hidden Markov models (HMMs). The paper concentrates on the maximum mutual information estimation (MMIE) criterion which has been used to train HMM systems for conversational telephone speech transcription using up ...
