This paper presents our approach for SwissText & KONVENS 2020 shared task 2, which is a multi-stage neural model for Swiss German (GSW) identification on Twitter. Our model outputs either GSW or non-GSW and is not meant to be used as a generic language identifier. Our architecture consists of two independent filters where the first one favors recall, and the second one filter favors precision (both towards GSW). Moreover, we do not use binary models (GSW vs. not-GSW) in our filters but rather a multi-class classifier with GSW being one of the possible labels. Our model reaches F1-score of 0.982 on the test set of the shared task.

Time Delay Neural Networks (TDNN)-based methods are widely used in dialect identification. However, in previous work with TDNN application, subtle variant is being neglected in different feature scales. To address this issue, we propose a new archite
cture, named dynamic multi-scale convolution, which consists of dynamic kernel convolution, local multi-scale learning, and global multi-scale pooling. Dynamic kernel convolution captures features between short-term and long-term context adaptively. Local multi-scale learning, which represents multi-scale features at a granular level, is able to increase the range of receptive fields for convolution operation. Besides, global multi-scale pooling is applied to aggregate features from different bottleneck layers in order to collect information from multiple aspects. The proposed architecture significantly outperforms state-of-the-art system on the AP20-OLR-dialect-task of oriental language recognition (OLR) challenge 2020, with the best average cost performance (Cavg) of 0.067 and the best equal error rate (EER) of 6.52%. Compared with the known best results, our method achieves 9% of Cavg and 45% of EER relative improvement, respectively. Furthermore, the parameters of proposed model are 91% fewer than the best known model.
End-to-end architectures have been recently proposed for spoken language understanding (SLU) and semantic parsing. Based on a large amount of data, those models learn jointly acoustic and linguistic-sequential features. Such architectures give very g
ood results in the context of domain, intent and slot detection, their application in a more complex semantic chunking and tagging task is less easy. For that, in many cases, models are combined with an external language model to enhance their performance. In this paper we introduce a data efficient system which is trained end-to-end, with no additional, pre-trained external module. One key feature of our approach is an incremental training procedure where acoustic, language and semantic models are trained sequentially one after the other. The proposed model has a reasonable size and achieves competitive results with respect to state-of-the-art while using a small training dataset. In particular, we reach 24.02% Concept Error Rate (CER) on MEDIA/test while training on MEDIA/train without any additional data.
In this paper, we present a two-stage language identification (LID) system based on a shallow ResNet14 followed by a simple 2-layer recurrent neural network (RNN) architecture, which was used for Xunfei (iFlyTek) Chinese Dialect Recognition Challenge
and won the first place among 110 teams. The system trains an acoustic model (AM) firstly with connectionist temporal classification (CTC) to recognize the given phonetic sequence annotation and then train another RNN to classify dialect category by utilizing the intermediate features as inputs from the AM. Compared with a three-stage system we further explore, our results show that the two-stage system can achieve high accuracy for Chinese dialects recognition under both short utterance and long utterance conditions with less training time.
The goal of Author Profiling (AP) is to identify demographic aspects (e.g., age, gender) from a given set of authors by analyzing their written texts. Recently, the AP task has gained interest in many problems related to computer forensics, psycholog
y, marketing, but specially in those related with social media exploitation. As known, social media data is shared through a wide range of modalities (e.g., text, images and audio), representing valuable information to be exploited for extracting valuable insights from users. Nevertheless, most of the current work in AP using social media data has been devoted to analyze textual information only, and there are very few works that have started exploring the gender identification using visual information. Contrastingly, this paper focuses in exploiting the visual modality to perform both age and gender identification in social media, specifically in Twitter. Our goal is to evaluate the pertinence of using visual information in solving the AP task. Accordingly, we have extended the Twitter corpus from PAN 2014, incorporating posted images from all the users, making a distinction between tweeted and retweeted images. Performed experiments provide interesting evidence on the usefulness of visual information in comparison with traditional textual representations for the AP task.
While language identification is a fundamental speech and language processing task, for many languages and language families it remains a challenging task. For many low-resource and endangered languages this is in part due to resource availability: w
here larger datasets exist, they may be single-speaker or have different domains than desired application scenarios, demanding a need for domain and speaker-invariant language identification systems. This years shared task on robust spoken language identification sought to investigate just this scenario: systems were to be trained on largely single-speaker speech from one domain, but evaluated on data in other domains recorded from speakers under different recording circumstances, mimicking realistic low-resource scenarios. We see that domain and speaker mismatch proves very challenging for current methods which can perform above 95% accuracy in-domain, which domain adaptation can address to some degree, but that these conditions merit further investigation to make spoken language identification accessible in many scenarios.
