Download or read book Language Identification Using Excitation Source Features written by K. Sreenivasa Rao and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-04-15 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the contribution of excitation source information in discriminating language. The authors focus on the excitation source component of speech for enhancement of language identification (LID) performance. Language specific features are extracted using two different modes: (i) Implicit processing of linear prediction (LP) residual and (ii) Explicit parameterization of linear prediction residual. The book discusses how in implicit processing approach, excitation source features are derived from LP residual, Hilbert envelope (magnitude) of LP residual and Phase of LP residual; and in explicit parameterization approach, LP residual signal is processed in spectral domain to extract the relevant language specific features. The authors further extract source features from these modes, which are combined for enhancing the performance of LID systems. The proposed excitation source features are also investigated for LID in background noisy environments. Each chapter of this book provides the motivation for exploring the specific feature for LID task, and subsequently discuss the methods to extract those features and finally suggest appropriate models to capture the language specific knowledge from the proposed features. Finally, the book discuss about various combinations of spectral and source features, and the desired models to enhance the performance of LID systems.
Download or read book Language Identification Using Spectral and Prosodic Features written by K. Sreenivasa Rao and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-03-31 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the impact of spectral features extracted from frame level, glottal closure regions, and pitch-synchronous analysis on the performance of language identification systems. In addition to spectral features, the authors explore prosodic features such as intonation, rhythm, and stress features for discriminating the languages. They present how the proposed spectral and prosodic features capture the language specific information from two complementary aspects, showing how the development of language identification (LID) system using the combination of spectral and prosodic features will enhance the accuracy of identification as well as improve the robustness of the system. This book provides the methods to extract the spectral and prosodic features at various levels, and also suggests the appropriate models for developing robust LID systems according to specific spectral and prosodic features. Finally, the book discuss about various combinations of spectral and prosodic features, and the desired models to enhance the performance of LID systems.

Download or read book Introduction to Google Translate written by Gilad James, PhD and published by Gilad James Mystery School. This book was released on with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Google Translate is a multilingual translation service provided by Google. It allows users to translate words, phrases, and entire documents between multiple languages. The service was launched in April 2006 and has since been constantly updated to provide more accurate translations. Initially offering translations in only two languages, Google Translate now supports over 100 languages. The translation process works by analyzing the text or document input by the user, breaking it up into smaller segments, and then using statistical algorithms to match these segments with translations from its database. Google Translate has been a helpful tool for people to communicate across different languages, whether it be for business or personal use. However, it must be noted that automated translations often carry a high risk of inaccuracies due to the complexities inherent in language and the nuances of different cultures and contexts. It is always recommended to use translations as a starting point, and then have a native speaker review and refine the language to ensure accuracy.

Download or read book Multilingual Phone Recognition in Indian Languages written by K.E Manjunath and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-10-05 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents current research and developments in multilingual speech recognition. The author presents a Multilingual Phone Recognition System (Multi-PRS), developed using a common multilingual phone-set derived from the International Phonetic Alphabets (IPA) based transcription of six Indian languages - Kannada, Telugu, Bengali, Odia, Urdu, and Assamese. The author shows how the performance of Multi-PRS can be improved using tandem features. The book compares Monolingual Phone Recognition Systems (Mono-PRS) versus Multi-PRS and baseline versus tandem system. Methods are proposed to predict Articulatory Features (AFs) from spectral features using Deep Neural Networks (DNN). Multitask learning is explored to improve the prediction accuracy of AFs. Then, the AFs are explored to improve the performance of Multi-PRS using lattice rescoring method of combination and tandem method of combination. The author goes on to develop and evaluate the Language Identification followed by Monolingual phone recognition (LID-Mono) and common multilingual phone-set based multilingual phone recognition systems.
