ASR Tools
Loquendo ASR provides users with a learning tool package, including: Phonetic Learning for an automatic discovery of pronunciation variants for vocabulary words and for detecting frequent not foreseen linguistic formulations to improve a speech recognition grammar Acoustic Model Adaptation: to improve recognition performance using audio material recorded in the field (environment, speaker, channel adaptation). A Sophisticated Speech Assistant Toolkit guarantees the rapid and efficient definition of Recognition Objects (ROs) and Recognition Packages, such as Grammar R O s, Language Modelling ROs using statistical N-grams.
Significant memory requirement reduction: ROs can be both permanent (and therefore shared by all recognition channels) and dynamic (i.e. loaded run-time when required and discarded once they have been used). In unpredictable situations, ROs can be created, stored and deleted on the fly. Loquendo ASR also provides: A re-usable built-in grammar library for each language. Phonetic segmentation, which provides the phonetic representation and related time-stamps for each phoneme within a sentence. This is often a prerequisite, especially in avatar animation.
