Spoken Language Forensics & Informatics (SLFI) group

Speech Lab, LTRC, IIIT-Hyderabad

  We extract signatures indicating how the spoken content was said? and use the signatures for robust spoken information retrieval
 





 
Our Objective


  • As a part of spoken language forensics, we automatically extract the signatures that indicate how the spoken content was said? under non-native context

  • As a part of spoken language informatics, we develop automatic methods to build robust models for spoken content information retrieval, mainly under non-native context, using spoken language forensics

  • Using spoken language forensics and informatics, we develop personalized virtual tools for language learning with spoken interactions and for speech based therapy to patients with speech or cognitive disorders

  • To build spoken language forensics and informatics models, we develop automatic data collection, validation and generation methods to reduce the manual intervention in all stages our analysis
