DEPARTMENT OF ECE, NMIT PROJECT REPORT 2015-2016 ABSTRACT Speech recognition is one of the most recently developing field of research at both industrial and scientific levels. Until recently, the idea of holding a conversation with a computer seemed pure science fiction. If you asked a computer to “open the pod bay doors”—well, that was only in movies. But things are changing, and quickly. A growing number of people now talk to their mobile smart phones, asking them to send e-mail and text messages, search for directions, or find information on the Web. Our Project aims at one such application. Project was designed keeping in mind ,the various categories of people who suffer from loneliness due to absence of others to care for them,especially the ones who are under cancer treatment and old aged people.The system will provide interaction and entertainment and control appliances such as television on voice commands. DEPARTMENT OF ECE, NMIT PROJECT REPORT 2015-2016 LITERATURE SURVEY Books are available to read and learn about speech recognition ,these enabled us to see what happens beyond the code. Claudio Becchetti, Klucio Prina Ricotti.“Speech Recognition: Theory and C++ Implementation “ 2008 edition, In this book we learned how to write and implement the c++ code. A most recent comprehensive textbook, "Fundamentals of Speaker Recognition" by Homayoon Beigi, is an in depth source for up to date details on the theory and practice. A good insight into the techniques used in the best modern systems can be gained by paying attention to government sponsored evaluations such as those organised by DARPA (the largest speech recognition-related project ongoing as of 2007 is the GALE project, which involves both speech recognition and translation components). "Automatic Speech Recognition: A Deep Learning Approach" (Publisher: Springer) written by D. Yu and L. Deng published near the end of 2014, with highly mathematically-oriented technical detail on how deep learning methods are derived and implemented in modern speech recognition systems based on DNNs and related deep learning methods.This gave us an insight into the conversion algorithm used by Google. Here are some IEEE and other articles we referred : Waibel, Hanazawa, Hinton, Shikano, Lang. (1989) "Phoneme recognition using time-delay neural networks. IEEE Transactions on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing." Reynolds, Douglas; Rose, Richard (January 1995). "Robust text-independent speaker identification using Gaussian mixture speaker models" (PDF). IEEE Transactions on Speech and Audio Processing (IEEE) 3 (1): 72–83. doi:10.1109/89.365379. ISSN 1063- 6676. OCLC 26108901. Retrieved 21 February 2014. DEPARTMENT OF ECE, NMIT PROJECT REPORT 2015-2016 SURVEY QUESTIONNNAIRE CONDUCTED IN OLD AGE HOME: 1.What is the total number of people in this old age home? Ans. There are 22 people of age above 70. 2.What are the facilities available to you? Ans. All basic needs are provided. 3. Is 24/7 medical assistance for someone who's bed- ridden? Ans. No 24/7 nursing. 4. What are the technological facilities provided at your organization for entertainment purpose? Ans. There was only television in each room. 5. Do you have access to computers,internet and mobile phones at your organization? Ans. No, we are not aware of using all of it. Also it is expensive. 6. What are the changes you would like to have in your daily rountine? Ans. The rountine is monotonous, so we like means to pass time, like playing games, learning anything based on our intrest. 7. Do you think our project is helpful to you? Ans Yes. It provides us entertainment and keeps us engaged and not feel bored. Speech activation is very helpful for us as it easy for us to use,especially tv. 8. Any suggestions? Ans. Add books,scriptures since our eyes gets weak with age. Add quiz games so that we can improve our knowledge. We need something that can train us to learning new languages or anything based on our intrest, without using internet.

  • Speech Recognition Technology for Disabilities Education
    J. EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS, Vol. 33(2) 173-184, 2004-2005 SPEECH RECOGNITION TECHNOLOGY FOR DISABILITIES EDUCATION K. WENDY TANG GILBERT ENG RIDHA KAMOUA WEI CHERN CHU VICTOR SUTAN GUOFENG HOU OMER FAROOQ Stony Brook University, New York ABSTRACT Speech recognition is an alternative to traditional methods of interacting with a computer, such as textual input through a keyboard. An effective system can replace or reduce the reliability on standard keyboard and mouse input. This can especially assist dyslexic students who have problems with character or word use and manipulation in a textual form; and students with physical disabilities that affect their data entry or ability to read, and therefore to check, what they have entered. In this article, we summarize the current state of available speech recognition technologies and describe a student project that integrates speech recognition technologies with Personal Digital Assistants to provide a cost-effective and portable health monitoring system for people with disabilities. We are hopeful that this project may inspire more student-led projects for disabilities education. 1. INTRODUCTION Speech recognition allows “hands-free” control of various electronic devices. It is particularly advantageous to physically disabled persons. Speech recognition can be used in computers to control the system, launch applications, and create “print-ready” dictation and thus provide easy access to persons with hearing or 173 Ó 2004, Baywood Publishing Co., Inc. 174 / TANG ET AL. vision impairments. For example, a hearing impaired person can use a microphone to capture another’s speech and then use speech recognition technologies to convert the speech to text.

Keywords: Mobile computing, energy efficiency, user interaction, user interface design, cognitive modeling, ubiquitous computing Abstract Mobile computing has thrived to provide unprecedented user experiences beyond the boundary of desks and wires. The increasing demand for mobility faces two major challenges: reduced form factor and limited energy supply. Although each challenge has been addressed by significant research efforts, the correlation between them is underexplored. Energy efficiency should be integrated as an important metric of user interaction design in mobile systems. By carefully considering the specific requirements of the user and the context of usage, energy efficiency can be achieved without sacrificing user performance and satisfaction, and interaction design that facilitates user efficiency can also promote energy efficiency.

  • Modify Verizon 6700/6800 Phone
    Hard Reset 1. Possibly corrupt USB driver or AS on the phone --> Hard Reset to check. (Reading back through the thread, I haven't seen that you've done this. Hard Reset clears the phone and reloads the operating system - you lose all settings, programs, and data, but that shouldn't matter much here. Hard Reset by holding down the two "soft keys" (the keys on the front with "-" on them) then depressing the reset button with the stylus. You'll then be prompted to hit "Y" and the spacebar on the keyboard. After the phone restarts, don't allow the customizations to run. That is, when the screen says something like "your phone will be customized in (counting down) 3,2,1 seconds", immediately Soft Reset by depressing the reset button with the stylus. I suppose among other things, the customizations might cause a problem with an unactivated phone.) Cvvc6yttttyy I am not responsible for any tweaks used on this page that may or may not damage your phone! I would like to thank everyone at http://www.pdaphonehome.com who contributed to the various tweaks as well as other websites and forums where this information was compiled from! I would name people personally but that would take entirely too long and I’m sure I would mess up who gets what credit You‟ll now be able to have wifi on while the phone is on.

  • Spoken Language Interface for Mobile Devices
    Spoken Language Interface for Mobile Devices João Freitas1, António Calado1, Maria João Barros2, Miguel Sales Dias1 1 MLDC, Microsoft Language Development Center, Edifício Qualidade C1-C2 Av. Prof. Doutor Aníbal Cavaco Silva Tagus Park 2744-010 Porto Salvo, Portugal 2 Eurescom GmbH, Wieblinger Weg 19/4, 69123 Heidelberg, Germany [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. In this paper, we present a set of optimizations for a spoken language interface for mobile devices that can improve the recognition accuracy and user interaction experience. A comparison between a speech and a graphical interface, when used to accomplish the same task, is provided. The implications of developing a spoken language interface and integrating speech recognition and text-to-speech modules for European Portuguese in a mobile device, are also discussed. The paper focuses in the speech recognition module and in an algorithm for name matching optimization that provides the user with a more comfortable interaction with the device. Usability evaluation trials have shown that spoken language interfaces can provide an easier and more efficient use of the device, especially within a community of users less experienced in handling mobile devices. Keywords: language interface; speech interface; human-computer interface; mobility; user experience; usability evaluation. 1 Introduction Spoken language interfaces impose a well know challenge to application developers: speech recognition is not perfect. We this in mind, software engineers should fully understand the strengths and weaknesses of the underlying speech technologies and identify the appropriate methodology and context, to use speech technology effectively. The process of integrating spoken language technologies in mobile applications as a Human-Computer Interface (or HCI) modality is highly dependent on the nature of the service provided by such technologies.
