Title: | Gaussian mixture model with precision matrices approximated by sparsely represented eigenvectors | Authors: | Jakovljević, Nikša | Issue Date: | 1-Jan-2014 | Journal: | 2014 22nd Telecommunications Forum, TELFOR 2014 - Proceedings of Papers | Abstract: | © 2014 IEEE. This paper proposes a model which approximates full covariance matrices in Gaussian mixture models (GMM) with a reduced number of parameters and computations required for likelihood evaluations. In the proposed model inverse covariance (precision) matrices are approximated using sparsely represented eigenvectors, i.e. each eigenvector of a covariance/precision matrix is represented as a linear combination of a small number of vectors from an overcomplete dictionary. A maximum likelihood algorithm for parameter estimation and its practical implementation are presented. Experimental results on a speech recognition task show that while keeping the word error rate close to the one obtained by GMMs with full covariance matrices, the proposed model can reduce the number of parameters by 45%. | URI: | https://open.uns.ac.rs/handle/123456789/5546 | ISBN: | 9781479961900 | DOI: | 10.1109/TELFOR.2014.7034441 |
