Phonotactic language recognition based on DNN-HMM acoustic model

摘要

A recently introduced deep neural network (DNN) has achieved some unprecedented gains in many challenging automatic speech recognition (ASR) tasks. In this paper deep neural network hidden Markov model (DNN-HMM) acoustic models is introduced to phonotactic language recognition and outperforms artificial neural network hidden Markov model (ANN-HMM) and Gaussian mixture model hidden Markov model (GMM-HMM) acoustic model. Experimental results have confirmed that phonotactic language recognition system using DNN-HMM acoustic model yields relative equal error rate reduction of 28.42%, 14.06%, 18.70% and 12.55%, 7.20%, 2.47% for 30s, 10s, 3s comparing with the ANN-HMM and GMM-HMM approaches respectively on National Institute of Standards and Technology language recognition evaluation (NIST LRE) 2009 tasks.
