Abstract :
This paper describes the system submitted by Loquendo and Politecnico di Torino (LPT) for the 2009 NIST Language Recognition Evaluation. The system is a combination of classifiers based on two core acoustic models and on two core phone tokenizers. It exploits several state-of-the-art techniques that have been successfully applied in recent years both in speaker and in language recognition.
