Subspace-based Representation And Learning For Phonotactic Spoken Language Recognition

Abstract

Phonotactic constraints can be employed to distinguish languages by representing a speech utterance as a multinomial distribution or phone events. In the present study, we propose a new learning mechanism based on subspace-based representation, which can extract concealed phonotactic structures from utterances, for language verification and dialect/accent identification. The framework mainly involves two successive parts. The first part involves subspace construction. Specifically, it decodes each utterance into a sequence of vectors filled with phone-posteriors and transforms the vector sequence into a linear orthogonal subspace based on low-rank matrix factorization or dynamic linear modeling. The second part involves subspace learning based on kernel machines, such as support vector machines and the newly developed subspace-based neural networks (SNNs). The input layer of SNNs is specifically designed for the sample represented by subspaces. The topology ensures that the same output
