The use of speech for system identification is an important and relevant topic. There are several ways of doing it, but most are dependent on the language the user speaks. However, if the idea is to create an all-inclusive and reliable system that uses speech as its input, we must take into account that people can and will speak different languages and have different accents. Thus, this research evaluates speaker identification systems on a multilingual setup. Our experiments are performed using three widely spoken languages which are Portuguese, English, and Chinese. Initial tests indicated the systems have certain robustness on multiple languages. Results with more languages decreases our accuracy, but our investigation suggests these impacts are related to the number of classes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
