We propose an algorithm to perform decision tree state clustering for the recently proposed Kullback-Leibler divergence based hidden Markov models (KL-HMM) and compare it to subspace Gaussian mixture modeling (SGMM). KL-HMM can exploit multilingual information in the form of universal phoneme posterior features and SGMM benefits from a universal background model that can be trained on multilingual data. Taking the Greek SpeechDat(II) data as an example, we show that KL-HMM performs best for small amounts of target language data.}, pdf = {https://publications.idiap.ch/attachments/reports/2012/Imseng_Idiap-RR-01-2013.pdf} } crossreferenced publications: @INPROCEEDINGS{Imseng_INTERSPEECH_2012, author = {Imseng, David and Dines, John and Motlicek, Petr and Garner, Philip N. and Bourlard, Herv{\'{e}}}, keywords = {multilingual acoustic modeling, speech recognition, under-resourced languages}, projects = {Idiap, SNSF-MULTI, IM2, EMIME}, month = sep, title = {Comparing different acoustic modeling techniques for multilingual boosting}, booktitle = {Proceedings of Interspeech}, year = {2012}, location = {Portland, Oregon}, pdf = {https://publications.idiap.ch/attachments/papers/2012/Imseng_INTERSPEECH_2012.pdf} }
