In this paper we show how common training criteria like for example MPE or MMI can be extended to incorporate a margin term. In addition, a transducer-based training implementation is presented, which covers a large variety of discriminative training criteria for ASR, including the standard MMI, MPE, and MCE criteria, as well as the modifications to these criteria presented here. The modified criteria...
In continuous speech recognition substitution, insertion and deletion errors usually not only vary in numbers but also have different degrees of impact on optimizing a set of acoustic models. To balance their contributions to the overall error, an enhanced minimum classification error (E-MCE) learning framework is developed. The basic idea is to partition acoustic model optimization into three subtasks,...
In recent years, various discriminative learning techniques for HMMs have consistently yielded significant benefits in speech recognition. In this paper, we present a novel optimization technique using the minimum classification error (MCE) criterion to optimize the HMM parameters. Unlike maximum mutual information training where an extended Baum-Welch (EBW) algorithm exists to optimize its objective...
