My supervisor asked me to benchmark my method in classifying speech signal with other language. I am doing Malay language speech recognition. To benchmark my method/feature used, I need to test English speech. I am wondering, while doing testing (on the English data), should I use English data as training and testing using the same method/feature in Malay, or using Malay trained data to test the English data. I am really confused. Please help me.
I am using spectral envelope information of the speech.
