Original Abstract

This paper presents comparison of Maximum Likelihood (ML) and  discriminative Maximum Mutual Information (MMI) training  for acoustic modeling in language identification (LID). Clear  advantage of MMI over ML training is shown. The final error rate compares favorably to other results published on NIST 2003 data.
