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 architecture, 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.

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 langua
ge 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.
This paper presents a dialect identification (DID) system based on the transformer neural network architecture. The conventional convolutional neural network (CNN)-based systems use the shorter receptive fields. We believe that long range information
is equally important for language and DID, and self-attention mechanism in transformer captures the long range dependencies. In addition, to reduce the computational complexity, self-attention with downsampling is used to process the acoustic features. This process extracts sparse, yet informative features. Our experimental results show that transformer outperforms CNN-based networks on the Arabic dialect identification (ADI) dataset. We also report that the score-level fusion of CNN and transformer-based systems obtains an overall accuracy of 86.29% on the ADI17 database.
In this paper, we explore the use of a factorized hierarchical variational autoencoder (FHVAE) model to learn an unsupervised latent representation for dialect identification (DID). An FHVAE can learn a latent space that separates the more static att
ributes within an utterance from the more dynamic attributes by encoding them into two different sets of latent variables. Useful factors for dialect identification, such as phonetic or linguistic content, are encoded by a segmental latent variable, while irrelevant factors that are relatively constant within a sequence, such as a channel or a speaker information, are encoded by a sequential latent variable. The disentanglement property makes the segmental latent variable less susceptible to channel and speaker variation, and thus reduces degradation from channel domain mismatch. We demonstrate that on fully-supervised DID tasks, an end-to-end model trained on the features extracted from the FHVAE model achieves the best performance, compared to the same model trained on conventional acoustic features and an i-vector based system. Moreover, we also show that the proposed approach can leverage a large amount of unlabeled data for FHVAE training to learn domain-invariant features for DID, and significantly improve the performance in a low-resource condition, where the labels for the in-domain data are not available.
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.
Teaching with the cooperation of expert teacher and assistant teacher, which is the so-called double-teachers classroom, i.e., the course is giving by the expert online and presented through projection screen at the classroom, and the teacher at the
classroom performs as an assistant for guiding the students in learning, is becoming more prevalent in todays teaching method for K-12 education. For monitoring the teaching quality, a microphone clipped on the assistants neckline is always used for voice recording, then fed to the downstream tasks of automatic speech recognition (ASR) and neural language processing (NLP). However, besides its voice, there would be some other interfering voices, including the experts one and the students one. Here, we propose to extract the assistant voices from the perspective of sound event detection, i.e., the voices are classified into four categories, namely the expert, the teacher, the mixture of them, and the background. To make frame-level identification, which is important for grabbing sensitive words for the downstream tasks, a multi-scale temporal convolution neural network is constructed with stacked dilated convolutions for considering both local and global properties. These features are concatenated and fed to a classification network constructed by three linear layers. The framework is evaluated on simulated data and real-world recordings, giving considerable performance in terms of precision and recall, compared with some classical classification methods.
