This study addresses communication challenges between non-English-speaking traders and their business partners by proposing a Mooré-to-English and English-to-Mooré voice translation mobile app using Artificial Intelligence. One of the main goals of this project is to overcome the language barrier between non-English-speaking traders and their business partners. After data collection, several algorithms were tested on the initial dataset for voice translation from Mooré to English and English to Mooré. The best accuracy, 79.92%, was achieved by combining the architecture of CNN+BiLSTM on our initial dataset. By using data augmentation techniques, CNN+BiLSTM achieved an accuracy of 96.25%. Our contribution in this paper is twofold: first, we provide a dataset for the scientific community. This dataset contains recordings of basic greetings in the Mooré language. This is an important step for studies on low-resource languages like Mooré and contributes to reducing the data scarcity challenge for local languages. The second contribution concerns the Mooré speech recognition model using deep learning techniques, which can help develop further studies related to our local languages.

摘要

This study addresses communication challenges between non-English-speaking traders and their business partners by proposing a Mooré-to-English and English-to-Mooré voice translation mobile app using Artificial Intelligence. One of the main goals of this project is to overcome the language barrier between non-English-speaking traders and their business partners. After data collection, several algorithms were tested on the initial dataset for voice translation from Mooré to English and English to Mooré. The best accuracy, 79.92%, was achieved by combining the architecture of CNN+BiLSTM on our initial dataset. By using data augmentation techniques, CNN+BiLSTM achieved an accuracy of 96.25%. Our contribution in this paper is twofold: first, we provide a dataset for the scientific community. This dataset contains recordings of basic greetings in the Mooré language. This is an important step for studies on low-resource languages like Mooré and contributes to reducing the data scarcity challenge for local languages. The second contribution concerns the Mooré speech recognition model using deep learning techniques, which can help develop further studies related to our local languages.
