This article proposes a model combination method to enhance the discriminability of the generative model.Generative and discriminative models have different optimization objectives and have their own advantages and drawbacks.The method proposed in this article intends to strike a balance between the two models mentioned above.It extracts the discriminative parameter from the generative model and generates a new model based on a multi-model combination.The weight for combining is determined by the ratio of the inter-variance to the intra-variance of the classes.The higher the ratio is,the greater the weight is, and the more discriminative the model will be.Experiments on speech recognition demonstrate that the performance of the new model outperforms the model trained with the traditional generative method.
