COGNITIVE ANALYSIS FOR SPEECH RECOGNITION USING MULTI-LANGUAGE VECTOR REPRESENTATIONS

Abstract:

A method, system and computer program product for speech recognition using multiple languages includes receiving, by one or more processors, an input from a user, the input includes a sentence in a first language. The one or more processors translate the sentence to a plurality of languages different than the first language, and create vectors associated with the plurality of languages, each vector includes a representation of the sentence in each of the plurality of languages. The one or more processors calculate eigenvectors for each vector associated with a language in the plurality of languages, and based on the calculated eigenvectors, a score is assigned to each of the plurality of languages according to a relevance for determining a meaning of the sentence.
