DISCRIMINATIVE TRAINING OF A FEATURE-SPACE TRANSFORM

摘要

A method, a system, and a computer program product are provided for discriminatively training a feature-space transform. The method includes performing feature-space discriminative training (f-DT) on an initialized feature-space transform, using manually transcribed data, to obtain a pre-stage trained feature-space transform. The method further includes performing f-DT on the pre-stage trained feature-space transform as a newly initialized feature-space transform, using automatically transcribed data, to obtain a main-stage trained feature-space transform. The method additionally includes performing f-DT on the main-stage trained feature-space transform as a newly initialized feature-space transform, using manually transcribed data, to obtain a post-stage trained feature-space transform.
