Abstract
The memory and data management requirements for text independent speaker dependent recognition are drastically reduced by using a novel approach that eliminates the need for separate acoustic recognition models for each speaker. This is achieved by using speaker independent recognition models at the acoustic level. The speaker dependent data stored for each item to be recognized consists only of information needed to determine the speaker independent recognition model sequence for that item.
