This repository contains my Google Summer of Code project 2018 with Red Hen Lab.
The project involves building a speech recognition system for dialectic Arabic. This system will be used to transcribe the Television news broadcast captured by Red Hen in Egypt. It also includes building a system for Arabic dialect identification.
We intend to follow the architectures proposed by the winning teams in the MGB-3 Arabic tasks [1].
This Readme will be updated regularly to include information about the code and guidelines to use this software.
