In this paper, we have proposed two novel optimization methods for discriminative training (DT) of hidden Markov models (HMMs) in speech recognition based on an efficient global optimization algorithm used to solve the so-called trust region (TR) problem, where a quadratic function is minimized under a spherical constraint. In the first method, maximum mutual information estimation (MMIE) of Gaussian...
In this paper, we have proposed a new method to construct an auxiliary function for the discriminative training of HMMs in speech recognition. The new auxiliary function serves as a first-order approximation of the original objective function but more importantly it remains as a lower bound of the original objective function as well. Furthermore, the trust region (TR) method in [1] is applied to find...
Heuristic search methods usually require a large amount of evolutionary iterative calculation, which has become a bottleneck for applying them to practical engineering problems. In order to reduce the number of analysis of heuristic search methods, a Pareto multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) method is presented. In this approach, Pareto fitness function is used to select global extremum...
In this paper, we present a new optimization method for MMIE-based discriminative training of HMMs in speech recognition. In our method, the MMIE training of Gaussian mixture HMMs is formulated as a so-called trust region problem, where a quadratic objective function is minimized under a spherical constraint, so that an efficient global optimization method for the trust region problem can be used...
