Abstract

Various technologies described herein pertain to conservatively adapting a deep neural network (DNN) in a recognition system for a particular user or context. A DNN is employed to output a probability distribution over models of context-dependent units responsive to receipt of captured user input. The DNN is adapted for a particular user based upon the captured user input, wherein the adaption is undertaken conservatively such that a deviation between outputs of the adapted DNN and the unadapted DNN is constrained.
