The most of the existing LID systems based on the Gaussian Mixture model. The main requirement of the GMM based LID system is it require large amount of speech data to train the GMM model. Most of the Indian languages have the similarity because they are derived from Devanagari. Even though common phonemes exists in phoneme sets across the Indian languages, each language contain its unique phonotactic constraints imposed by the language. Any modeling technique capable of capturing all these slight variations imposed by the language is one of the important language identification cue. To model the GMM based LID system which captures above variations it require large number of mixture components.To model the large number of mixture components using Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM), the technique requires a large number of training data for each language class, which is very difficult to get for Indian languages. The main objective of GMM-UBM based LID system is it require less amount of training data to train(model) the system. In this paper, the importance of GMM-UBM modeling for language identification (LID) task for Indian languages are explored using new set of feature vectors. In GMM-UBM LID system based on the new feature vectors, the phonotactic variations imparted by different Indian languages are modeled using Gaussian Mixture model and Universal Background Model (GMM-UBM) technique. In this type of modeling, some amount of data from each class of language is pooled to create a universal background model. From this UBM model each model class is adapted. In this study, it is found that the performance of new feature vectors GMM-UBM based LID system is superior when compared to conventional new feature vectors based GMM LID system.

Detection of moving object is a hot topic in computer vision. Traditionally, it is detected for every pixel in whole image by Gaussian mixture background model, which may waste more time and space. In order to improving the computational efficiency, an advanced Gaussian mixture model based on Region of Interest was proposed. Firstly, the solution finds out the most probably region where the target may turn up. And then Gaussian mixture background model is built in this area. Finally, morphological filter algorithm is used for improving integrity of the detected targets. Results show that the improved method could have a more perfect detection but no more time increasing than typical method.

Condition monitoring and fault detection are nowadays popular topic. Different loads, enviroments etc. affect the components and systems differently and can induce the fault and faulty behaviour. Most of the approaches for the fault detection rely on the use of the good classification method. Gaussian mixture model based classification are stable and versatile methods which can be applied to a wide range of classification tasks. The main task is the estimation of the parameters in the Gaussian mixture model. Those can be estimated with various techniques. Therefore, the Gaussian mixture model based classification have different variants which can vary in performance. To test the performance of the Gaussian mixture model based classification variants and general usefulness of the Gaussian mixture model based classification for the fault detection, we have opted to use the bearing fault classification problem. Additionally, comparisons with other widely used non-parametric classification methods are made, such as support vector machines and neural networks. The performance of each classification method is evaluated by multiple repeated k-fold cross validation. From the results obtained, Gaussian mixture model based classification methods are shown to be competitive and efficient methods and usable in the field of fault detection and condition monitoring.
