  • General Subtitling FAQ's
    General Subtitling FAQ’s What's the difference between open and closed captions? Open captions are sometimes referred to as ‘burnt-in’ or ‘in-vision’ subtitles. They are generally encoded as a permanent part of the video image. Closed captions is a generic term for subtitles that are viewer-selectable and is generally used for subtitles that are transmitted as a discrete data stream in the VBI then decoded and displayed as text by the TV receiver e.g. Line 21 Closed Captioning system in the USA, and Teletext subtitles, using line 335, in Europe. What's the difference between "live" and "offline" subtitling? Live subtitling is the real-time captioning of live programmes, typically news and sports. This is achieved by using either Speech Recognition systems or Stenographic (Steno) keyboards. Offline subtitling is created by viewing previously recorded material. Typically this produces better results because the subtitle author can ensure they produce An accurate translation/transcription with no spelling mistakes Subtitles are timed to coincide precisely with the dialogue Subtitles are positioned to avoid obscuring other important onscreen features Which Speech Recognition packages do Starfish support? Starfish supports Speech Recognition packages from IBM and Dragon and other suppliers who confirm to the Microsoft Speech API. The choice of the software is usually dictated by the availability of a specific language. Starfish Technologies Ltd FAQ General FAQ’s What's the difference between subtitling and captioning? The use of these terms varies in different parts of the world. Subtitling often refers to the technique of using open captions for language translation of foreign programmes.

  • 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.

YENKE1, (Member, IEEE), and MARCELLIN ATEMKENG3 1Department of Computer Engineering, University Institute of Technology, University of Ngaoundere, 455 Ngaoundere, Cameroon (e-mail: [email protected], [email protected]) 2Department Mathematics and Computer Science, Faculty of Science, University of Ngaoundere, 454 Ngaoundere, Cameroon (e-mail: [email protected]) 3Department of Mathematics, Rhodes University, Grahamstown 6140, South Africa (e-mail: [email protected]) Corresponding author: Jean Louis K.E. Fendji (e-mail: lfendji@ gmail.com), Marcellin Atemkeng (e-mail: [email protected]). ABSTRACT Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) is an active field of research due to its huge number of applications and the proliferation of interfaces or computing devices that can support speech processing. But the bulk of applications is based on well-resourced languages that overshadow under-resourced ones. Yet ASR represents an undeniable mean to promote such languages, especially when design human-to-human or human-to-machine systems involving illiterate people. An approach to design an ASR system targeting under-resourced languages is to start with a limited vocabulary. ASR using a limited vocabulary is a subset of the speech recognition problem that focuses on the recognition of a small number of words or sentences. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive view of mechanisms behind ASR systems as well as techniques, tools, projects, recent contributions, and possibly future directions in ASR using a limited vocabulary.

  • Evaluating Factors for Developing Open Speech Api for Typical Punjabi Language & Comparative Study
    International Journal of Latest Trends in Engineering and Technology Vol.(11) Issue(4), pp.045-052 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.21172/1.114.09 e-ISSN:2278-621X EVALUATING FACTORS FOR DEVELOPING OPEN SPEECH API FOR TYPICAL PUNJABI LANGUAGE & COMPARATIVE STUDY Er. Karamjot Kaur1, Dr. Pardeep Singh Cheema2 Abstract- The paper is going to evaluate the development factors of best automatic speech recognition API’s to this effect in the development of cloud based open speech API in context to rise the utilization of undiluted words of Punjabi language. There are approximately 7000 currently spoken languages in the world. There are total 1635 Indian languages. 53 of Indian languages are put up as endangered languages and 197 are between endangered and vulnerable languages. The minority mother tongues are dying slowly. Punjabi is 10th most widely spoken language in the world & 5th most spoken native language in Canada but continuously losing its precious words due to dilution with other languages. Punjabi is written with Gurmukhi script; it’s a meaning changing language with accent and lexical tone. Most of the history, literature and great holy scripture of the Sikh religion is written in Punjabi language. In the today’s world if internet there are many speech recognition systems are available for most of languages and especially for English language but for Punjabi languages a very little work is done, which is limited to published work only without real life implementation. The existing speech recognition API’s are not supporting the Punjabi language. To recover from the current issue and regenerating the undiluted words, the only solution is the development of an open and self-enriching speech recognition API in which users will contribute to train it into their own necessity and effortlessly integrate with the own applications, software’s and websites.

  • Capítulo 4. SAPI
    Capítulo 4. SAPI. 4.1 ¿Qué es Microsoft Speech Application Program Interface (SAPI)? La SAPI es una interfaz de reconocimiento del habla y de síntesis de voz para la programación de aplicaciones basadas en Win32 (Intel Win32s, Windows NT, Windows 95/98, MIPS Windows NT, DEC Alpha Windows NT, Power PC Windows NT, Windows XP). “Actúa como una capa de abstracción entre las aplicaciones y los motores (máquinas sintetizadoras y reconocedoras) sobre tecnología del habla” [11]. También es una interfaz entre los motores y el hardware de reconocimiento de voz (SR. Speech Recognition) y de síntesis de voz (TTS. Text to Speech). La SAPI tiene interfaces para 4 aplicaciones fundamentales que son: • Reconocimiento de comandos. El usuario da como entrada una serie de comandos predefinidos por medio del habla que serán transformados a texto escrito y que la aplicación entenderá como ordenes y ejecutará. Esta aplicación es en la que nosotros profundizaremos. • Texto hablado (Text to Speech). Transforma un texto escrito a texto hablado por medio de síntesis del habla. • Dictado. Transformación de habla continua a texto escrito que será usado en alguna aplicación (procesador de palabras). • Telefonía. El usuario se comunica con alguna aplicación por medio del teléfono. 1 La SAPI tiene varias interfaces que sirven para las aplicaciones antes descritas. Estas interfaces están divididas es dos niveles [12]: • High level Interfaces (Interfaces de alto nivel). Fueron diseñadas para hacer más fácil la implementación, pero se pierde un poco el control. Son para resultados rápidos pero pueden ser no tan efectivas. Son simples, exigen poco código y pueden compartir recursos.
