| Abstract | Model adaptation techniques can usually be divided into indirect and direct approaches. On one hand, indirect or transformation-based techniques assume that a general transformation shared amongst different acoustic units is applied to clusters of model parameters. Such approaches (e.g. MLLR-maximum likelihood linear regression) are quite efficient when the amount of adaptation data is limited, but have poor asymptotic properties as the amount of adaptation data increases. On the other hand, direct adaptation approaches, like maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimation have nice asymptotic properties but provide only a moderate improvement when the amount of adaptation data is small. In this work, we jointly optimize a direct and indirect adaptation to take advantage of both approaches. Contrary to published approaches where direct and indirect adaptation are performed one after the other with a very loose interaction and no joint estimation criterion, we propose to estimate a MLLR-like transformation as well as the HMM mean vectors simultaneously, using a MAP estimation criterion. The optimal interaction between the direct and indirect adaptation associated with the prior knowledge provided by the MAP criterion leads to improvement over MLLR and MAP for all size of adaptation data evaluated. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
