Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the development of a speech recognition software project, focusing on the educational aspects of learning digital signal processing (DSP) and related subjects necessary for processing sound data. Participants explore foundational knowledge and resources relevant to speech recognition technology.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Technical explanation, Conceptual clarification

Main Points Raised

  • One participant expresses a desire to create a speech recognition software and seeks guidance on foundational subjects to learn, particularly in relation to digital signal processing.
  • Another participant suggests reviewing an external resource for an overview of the challenges associated with speech recognition.
  • A third participant shares personal experiences with existing speech recognition software, mentioning its resource demands and suggesting alternatives that may be beneficial for the original poster.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

There is no clear consensus among participants regarding the specific subjects to learn for speech recognition, as the discussion primarily consists of inquiries and suggestions rather than definitive answers.

Contextual Notes

Participants have varying levels of prior knowledge, and there is an acknowledgment of the need for foundational understanding in digital signal processing, but specific learning paths remain undefined.

Hello , I want to do a small Speech Recognition Software for my pc , to allow me use my voice to start some programs and execute some commands on shell ( I know there are others but i want to do in on the educational side)

What subjects i should learn first ? I haven't taken Digital Signal Processing courses yet, however i have knowledge in Fourier series and transforms. What should i know to process sound data ?

Can you describe briefly , thanks !

Thank you , that explains briefly.
 
As an FYI Dragon Natural Speaking is favored by the Doc and Attorneys I support. It is a big resource hog so a beefy PC is recommended.

I use Mac Speech on the OS X as well. It is impressive. It is built upon Dragon's engine.

I know you wanted to write something, but these might save you some time.
