Abstract
A new method that improves the performance of large scale voice dialling system is presented using speaker adaptation. Since SI (Speaker Independent) based speech recognition system with phoneme HMM uses only the phoneme string of the input sentence, the storage space could be reduced greatly. However, the performance of the system is worse than that of the speaker dependent system due to the mismatch between the input utterance and the SI models. A new method that estimates the phonetic string and adaptation vectors iteratively is presented to reduce the mismatch between the training utterances and a set of SI models using speaker adaptation techniques. For speaker adaptation the stochastic matching methods are used to estimate the adaptation vectors. The experiments performed over actual telephone line shows that proposed method shows better performance as compared to the conventional method. with the SI phonetic recognizer.
