Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely:  presents our strategies for developing an automatic speech recognition system for Iban, an under-resourced language.  faced several challenges such as no pronunciation dictionary and lack of training material for building acoustic models. To overcome these problems,  proposed approaches which exploit resources from a closely-related language (Malay).  developed a semi-supervised method for building the pronunciation dictionary and applied cross-lingual strategies for improving acoustic models  trained with very limited training data. Both approaches displayed very encouraging results, which show that data from a closely-related language, if available, can be exploited to build ASR for a new language. In the final part of the paper,  present a zero-shot ASR using Malay resources that can be used as an alternative method for transcribing Iban speech.
