Speech recognition allows a voice messaging application to understand human speech and transfer it into digital or analog signals.
The capability of a voice processing system to recognize and translate human voice signals into digital signals a computer system can understand. Includes both speaker dependent and speaker independent systems, and may work through discrete syllable recognition (most basic) or continuous speech recognition (most advanced).
A programme that will convert speech into text on the computer screen. Back to list
Systems that can recognize either specific spoken words and phrases or a whole vocabulary and react to what is being said.
The ability of a computer to understand spoken commands.
speech recognition: software solution that enables people to participate in the policy-making process through verbal means rather than using a keyboard.
The process of converting spoken language into printed text. Speech recognition (SR), also called speech-to-text recognition, involves: Capturing and digitizing the sound waves produced by a human speaker Converting the digitized sound waves into basic units of language sounds or phonemes Constructing words from the phonemes Analyzing the context in which the words appear to ensure correct spelling for words that sound alike (such as write and right)
A process accomplished by software that allows a user to interact with her/his computer either partially or exclusively by voice, eliminating manual interaction with the mouse and/or keyboard.
Automatic conversion of spoken language to written text by a computer. Typically this is used in the context of report dictation where a transcriptionist is eliminated from the workflow.
The ability of the system to understand spoken input from callers.
This is not a biometric and should not be confused with speaker verification. Speech recognition involves recognising words as they are spoken and does not identify the speaker.
See Continuous Speech Recognition.
Software that enables a user to control a computer and enter data without touching the keyboard or the mouse. A person who is unable to, or must limit the use of, his or her hands can move cursors and pointers, perform keystrokes, carry-out system functions, and create documents using only his or her voice.
Software that takes the spoken word via a microphone and converts it to machine-readable format.
A computer system which can recognise human speech. Basic systems may only be able to understand expected responses (for example: "yes" or "no"). More advanced systems can transcribe speech real time.
A software application that understands speech as a means of data input, executes verbal commands, or converts speech into text. Most speech recognition programs are able to understand a limited vocabulary and must be 'trained' over a period of time for uncommon terms, phrases, the user's accent, and vocal inflection. In time, speech recognition is expected to become a much more common computer interface, gradually replacing manual methods (keyboard, mouse, etc.).
A machine or software capable of recognizing spoken language. The machine or software may take the spoken language and translate it into written text, or follow the spoken instructions to perform other functions.
The ability of a voice messaging application to understand human speech and transfer it into digital or analog signals.
Analysing the spoken word via special software so that a PC can recognise it and translate spoken commands into computer actions.
The capability of a voice processing system to decipher spoken words and phrases.
Automatic conversion of spoken words to computer text.
The ability to interpret spoken words and convert them into computer-readable text. Speech recognition programs allow you to enter text by speaking into a microphone, rather than using a keyboard.
A software application that can recognize spoken speech†a human voice.Voice recognition applications do not understand what the content of the speech means –however, they can recognize specific commands, such as “Call Jane Smithâ€, and perform specificactions based on those commands. Over the last few years, speech recognition technology hasimproved dramatically – early efforts were marked by poor accuracy and a need to speak slowly –© 2002 Cahners In-Stat/MDR – IN020434WP – Confidentia12 lcurrent products recognize many different commands, as well as different speaking styles andaccents.
A computer process of identifying spoken words input through a microphone or telephone and transcribing those words into text data within the computer. Those words can then be processed as input commands or turned into documents for editing or output.
The ability of a computer to understand the spoken word for the purpose of receiving command and data input from the speaker.
Speech recognition (in many contexts also known as automatic speech recognition, computer speech recognition or erroneously as Voice Recognition) is the process of converting a speech signal to a sequence of words, by means of an algorithm implemented as a computer program. Speech recognition applications that have emerged over the last years include voice dialing (e.g., Call home), call routing (e.g., I would like to make a collect call), simple data entry (e.g., entering a credit card number), and preparation of structured documents (e.g., a radiology report).
