Spoken language recognition based on senone posteriors

This paper explores in depth a recently proposed approach to spoken language recognition based on the estimated posteriors for a set of senones representing the phonetic space of one or more languages. A neural network (NN) is trained to estimate the posterior probabilities for the senones at a fram...
