Abstract :
A Mandarin speech autodialer using unit of diphthong and Bayesian reference models is presented. Besides, an effective speaker adaptation technique based on the generalized probabilistic descent algorithm is developed and integrated into the speech autodialer system. Experimental results show that a good performance is obtained
