    Automatic text-independent Kannada dialect identification system
    (Springer Verlag service@springer.de, 2019) Chittaragi, N.B.; Limaye, A.; Chandana, N.T.; Annappa, B.; Koolagudi, S.G.
    This paper proposes a dialect identification system for the Kannada language. A system that can automatically identify the dialects of the language being spoken has a wide variety of applications. However, not many Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) and dialect identification tasks are carried out in majority of the Indian languages. Further, there are only a few good quality annotated audio datasets available. In this paper, a new dataset for 5 spoken dialects of the Kannada language is introduced. Spectral and prosodic features have captured the most prominent features for recognition of Kannada dialects. Support Vector Machine (SVM) and neural networks algorithms are used for modeling text-independent recognition system. A neural network model that attempts for identification dialects based on sentence level cues has also been built. Hyper-parameters for SVM and neural network models are chosen using grid search. Neural network models have outperformed SVMs when complete utterances are considered. © Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2019.

    Estimation of Tyre Pressure from the Characteristics of the Wheel: An Image Processing Approach
    (Springer, 2020) Vineeth Reddy, V.B.; Ananda Rao, H.; Yeshwanth, A.; Ramteke, P.B.; Koolagudi, S.G.
    Improper tyre pressure is a safety issue that falls prey to ignorance of users. But a drop in tyre pressure can result in the reduction of mileage, tyre life, vehicle safety and performance. In this paper, an approach is proposed to measure the tyre pressure from the image of the wheel. The tyre pressure is classified into under pressure and normal pressure using load index, tyre type, tyre position and ratio of compressed and uncompressed tyre radius. The efficiency of the feature is evaluated using three classifiers namely Random Forest, AdaBoost and Artificial Neural Networks. It is observed that the ratio of radii plays a major role in classifying the tyres. The proposed system can be used to obtain a rough idea on whether the tyre should be refilled or not. © 2020, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
