Abstract
The mismatch between system training and operating conditions can seriously deteriorate the performance of automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems. Various techniques have been proposed to solve this problem in a specified speech environment. Employment of these techniques often involves modification on the ASR system structure. In this paper, we propose an environment-independent (EI) ASR model parameter adaptation approach based on Bayesian parametric representation (BPR), which is able to adapt ASR models to new environments without changing the structure of an ASR system. The parameter set of BPR is optimized by a maximum joint likelihood criterion which is consistent with that of the hidden Markov model (HMM)-based ASR model through an independent expectation-maximization (EM) procedure. Variations of the proposed approach are investigated in the experiments designed in two different speech environments: one is the noisy environment provided by the AURORA 2 database, and the other is the network environment provided by the NTIMIT database. Performances of the proposed EI ASR model compensation approach are compared to those of the cepstral mean normalization (CMN) approach, which is one of the standard techniques for additive noise compensation. The experimental results show that performances of ASR models in different speech environments are significantly improved after being adapted by the proposed BPR model compensation approach

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
