Abstract

This paper presents our most recent activities trying to adapt the foreign language based speech recognition engine for the recognition of the Lithuanian speech commands. As presented in our earlier papers the speakers of less popular languages (such as the Lithuanian) have several choices: to develop own speech recognition engines or to try adapting the speech recognition models developed and trained for the foreign languages to the task of recognition of their native spoken language. The second approach can lead to the faster implementation of the Lithuanian speech recognition modules into some practical tasks but the proper adaptation and optimization procedures should be found and investigated. This paper presents our activities trying to improve the recognition of Lithuanian voice commands using multiple transcriptions per command and English recognizer.
