Abstract

The exploitation of fuzzy logic control (FLC) mechanism in the fields of speaker adaptation (SA) is thoroughly investigated in this study, specifically in the reliable determination of HMM acoustic parameters. For enhancing the performance of speaker adaptation, the FLC mechanism is engineered into the MAP estimate of HMM parameters for Bayesian-based adaptation; also into the MLLR estimate for transformation-based adaptation. The speech recognition system using an adaptation scheme with the support of FLC will still be able to keep a satisfactory recognition performance even in an ordinary case.
