Machine identification of the language of input speech is of practical interest in regions where people are either bilingual or multi-lingual. Here, we present the development of automatic language identification system that identifies the language of input speech as one of Assamese or Bengali or English spoken by them. The speech databases comprise of sentences read by multiple speakers using their mobile phones. Kaldi toolkit was used to train acoustic models based on hidden Markov model in conjunction with Gaussian mixture models and deep neural networks. The accuracy of the implemented language identification system for test data is 99.3%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
