A Combination of Maximum Likelihood Bayesian Framework and Discriminative Linear Transforms for Speaker Adaptation

that the combinational method outperforms both Maximum likelihood linear regression and Bayesian framework. Also the proposed method with discriminative adaptation outperforms previously proposed methods for transform estimation and discriminative training outperforms ML training.
