Abstract(in English) In this paper, an acoustic model adaptation method based on multi streams is proposed for speech recognition in noisy or real environments. At first, an acoustic feature vector is divided into several vectors (e.g. static, first-order and second-order dynamic vectors), namely streams. Second, the order of streams is determined according to accuracies of pre-recognition results. While adaptation, a stream performing the highest recognition performance is updated for the stream only. Alternatively, a stream is adapted using all the streams that are superior to the stream. In order to evaluate the proposed technique, recognition and adaptation experiments were conducted using a corpus CENSREC-1. Pre-recognition results show dynamic features are more robust to noise than static parameters. And through adaptation experiments it is found that our proposed method achieved the best performance compared to conventional acoustic feature and its streams. These results show the effectiveness of our proposed adaptation scheme.
