The present invention generates a task-dependent acoustic model from a supervised task-independent corpus and further adapted it with an unsupervised task dependent corpus. The task-independent corpus includes task-independent training data which has an acoustic representation of words and a sequence of transcribed words corresponding to the acoustic representation. A relevance measure is defined for each of the words in the task-independent data. The relevance measure is used to weight the data associated with each of the words in the task-independent training data. The task-dependent acoustic model is then trained based on the weighted data for the words in the task-independent training data.
