Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for using non-parametric models in speech recognition. In some implementations, speech data is accessed. The speech data represents utterances of a particular phonetic unit occurring in a particular phonetic context, and the speech data includes values for multiple dimensions. Boundaries are determined for a set of quantiles for each of the multiple dimensions. Models for the distribution of values within the quantiles are generated. A multidimensional probability function is generated. Data indicating the boundaries of the quantiles, the models for the distribution of values in the quantiles, and the multidimensional probability function are stored.
