Hi,

For this reason it seems that an adaptation method, that I have read about
in some of the HTS group's publications, would be more suitable. From
previous postings I read that HTS does not yet support speaker adaptation
using HEAdapt so is this still currently true?
Yes and no.
Last week some members of HTS working group discussed about the final
HTS-2.0 release
and we decided to include the speaker adaptation in this version.
Actually, some modifications to support the speaker adaptation for MSD-HMMs
have already been made in HTS-2.0RC2.
Current implementation *probably* works, but it should be tested further
and some essential functions have not been included yet.
I'll work on it this October, I hope I can it in HTS-2.0RC3.
Best regards,
