Hi again,

I thing that will be better to adapt the generic VoxForge acoustic model to their voice, but today there is nothing to adapt, because we don't have enough voice. Then the only way to make a simple voice recognition program in spanish is to make a speaker dependent acoustic model, isn't it?

I don't know how many hours are needed to make a simple command recognition program...

In order to the people to use the recognition, it's needed the existence of some voice aplication that could control a linux desktop... make a simple program could be easy (a program that handle a little grammar: open program, close program, and so on).

May be I'm going to copy my previous message in other thread, in order to see if any possible user give their opinion about this... if it could be interesting let's work on it... if not... Please, copy your previous reply, and then I will copy this one if you want.

Regards.

Hi:

Spanish voice recognition for command+control apps are posible with gnome-voice-control applet (open/close programs, move mouset, etc). I work with Nickolay at #cmusphinx IRC channel to make a spanish version of the applet (I help with some traslation and with a basic spanish+phoneme dictionary), it was tricky but possible..currently I have it installed in my fedora system and it able to recognize simple command likes mouse up/down, open terminal/gedit and stuff like that, but actually don't do anything after the command is recognized, but that is a gnome accesibility problem that the sphinx guys have (not to serious they are working to make it work again...previous version do the thing...)...I think that Nickolay use some of the Dr. Nolasco resources (he is from CMU to) or have some programs to automate some tasks...

Let me know if you are interesting and I can try to find the time to find the comand/config that I make ...

Some month ago I also work to help to voxforge in some traslation but I don't have to much time now, but is a very interesting subject to me still, so I can try to find some time...also you are moving to much fast that I'm...

P.D: hi Ken!!, seems like the spanish is making progress :-)

Hi Mauricio,

I tried gnome-voice-control with english... and it didn't work well for me (may be my english pronunciation is not good enough :-)

If you have any config that could be used, it may be well to post it here (may be in another thread).

Thank you for the beginning of the translation... I have only continued what you started, if you see anything that is wrong with the traslation tell me.

Have you trained sphinx or julius for your voice?

I have not much experience with voice recognition. I have just started 15 days ago... and I have readed a lot.

Regards.
