This paper describes the speech recognition systems of IOIT for IWSLT 2014 TED ASR track. This year, we focus on improving acoustic model for the systems using two main approaches of deep neural network which are hybrid and bottleneck feature systems. These two subsystems are combined using lattice Minimum Bayes-Risk decoding. On the 2013 evaluations set, which serves as a progress test set, we were able to reduce the word error rate of our transcription systems from 27.2% to 24.0%, a relative reduction of 11.7%.

This paper describes our English Speech-to-Text (STT) systems for the 2013 IWSLT TED ASR track. The systems consist of multiple subsystems that are combinations of different front-ends, e.g. MVDR-MFCC based and lMel based ones, GMM and NN acoustic models and different phone sets. The outputs of the subsystems are combined via confusion network combination. Decoding is done in two stages, where the systems of the second stage are adapted in an unsupervised manner on the combination of the first stage outputs using VTLN, MLLR, and cMLLR.
