Abstract

Spoken Language Identification (LID) is an important sub-task of Automatic Speech Recognition(ASR) that is used to classify the language(s) in an audio segment. Automatic LID plays an useful role in multilingual countries. In various countries, identifying a language becomes hard, due to the multilingual scenario where two or more than two languages are mixed together during conversation. Such phenomenon of speech is called as code-mixing or code-switching. This nature is followed not only in India but also in many Asian countries. Such code-mixed data is hard to find, which further reduces the capabilities of the spoken LID. Hence, this work primarily addresses this problem using data augmentation as a solution on the on the data scarcity of the code-switched class. This study focuses on Indic language code-mixed with English. Spoken LID is performed on Hindi, code-mixed with English. This research proposes Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) based data augmentation technique perform
