ABSTRACT:
Linear approximation of the background noise is applied after feature extraction and prior to speaker adaptation to allow the speaker adaptation system to adapt the speech models to the enrolling user without distortion from background noise. The linear approximation is applied in the feature domain, such as in the cepstral domain. Any adaptation technique that is commutative in the feature domain may be used.
