Language, Dialect, and Speaker Recognition Using Gaussian Mixture Models on the Cell Processor
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent advances in processor technology allow multiple processors to reside within the same chip, allowing high performance per watt. Currently the Cell Broadband Engine has the leading performance-per-watt specifications in its class. Each Cell processor consists of a PowerPC Processing Element (PPE) working together with eight Synergistic Processing Elements (SPE). The SPEs have 256KB of memory (local store), which is used for storing both program and data.

A Comparative Study of Gender and Age Classification in Speech Signals
Accurate gender classification is useful in speech and speaker recognition as well as speech emotion classification, because a better performance has been reported when separate acoustic models are employed for males and females. Gender classification is also apparent in face recognition, video summarization, human-robot interaction, etc. Although gender classification is rather mature in a...
متن کاملRecognizing the Emotional State Changes in Human Utterance by a Learning Statistical Method based on Gaussian Mixture Model
Speech is one of the most opulent and instant methods to express emotional characteristics of human beings, which conveys the cognitive and semantic concepts among humans. In this study, a statistical-based method for emotional recognition of speech signals is proposed, and a learning approach is introduced, which is based on the statistical model to classify internal feelings of the utterance....
متن کاملGaussian Mixture Selection and Data Selection for Unsupervised Spanish Dialect Classification
Automatic dialect classification has gained interests in the field of speech research because it is important to characterize speaker traits and to estimate knowledge that could improve integrated speech technology (e.g., speech recognition, speaker recognition). This study addresses novel advances in unsupervised spontaneous Latin American Spanish dialect classification. The problem considers ...
متن کاملForeign accent detection from spoken Finnish using i-vectors
I-vector based recognition is a well-established technique in state-of-the-art speaker and language recognition but its use in dialect and accent classification has received less attention. We represent an experimental study of i-vector based dialect classification, with a special focus on foreign accent detection from spoken Finnish. Using the CallFriend corpus, we first study how recognition ...
متن کاملEigen-channel compensation and discriminatively trained Gaussian mixture models for dialect and accent recognition
This paper presents a series of dialect/accent identification results for three sets of dialects with discriminatively trained Gaussian mixture models and feature compensation using eigen-channel decomposition. The classification tasks evaluated in the paper include: 1) the Chinese language classes, 2) American and Indian accented English and 3) discrimination between three Arabic dialects. The...
