abstract = {This paper presents a new approach to estimate "universal" phoneme posterior probabilities for
mixed language speech recognition. More specifically, we propose a new theoretical framework to
combine phoneme class posterior probabilities in a principled way by using (statistical) evidence
about the language identity. We investigate the proposed approach in a mixed language environment
(SpeechDat(II)) consisting of five European languages. Our studies show that the proposed approach
can yield significant improvements on a mixed language task, while maintaining the performance on
monolingual tasks. Additionally, through a case study, we also demonstrate the potential benefits of
the proposed approach for non-native speech recognition.},
