Popis: Discriminative training of Gaussian Mixture Models (GMMs) for speech or speaker recognition purposes is usually based on the gradient descent method, in which the iteration step-size, epsilon, uses to be defined experimentally. In this letter, we derive an equation to adaptively determine epsilon, by showing that the second-order Newton-Raphson iterative method to find roots of equations is equivalent to the gradient descent algorithm.
