Yongwon Jeong, Sangjun Lim, Young‐Kuk Kim, Hyung Soon Kim · IEICE Transactions on Information and Systems · 2013

We present an acoustic model adaptation method where the transformation matrix for a new speaker is given by the product of bases and a weight matrix. The bases are built from the parallel factor analysis 2 (PARAFAC2) of training speakers' transformation matrices. We perform continuous speech recognition experiments using the WSJ0 corpus.
