  • Using Web Speech Technology with Language Learning Applications
    the jaltcalljournal ISSN 1832-4215 Vol. 11, No.2 Pages 177–187 ©2015 JALT CALL SIG Computerized recognition and Using Web assessment of speech Speech Electronic communication has rapidly evolved over the last few decades, from technology with using chat commands via Telnet and usenet, to making video calls via Skype language learning and FaceTime. We can now simply speak to our mobile device when drafting an email applications or calling a friend instead of entering text with a keyboard. While computer-mediated communication has traditionally focused Paul Daniels on human-to-human communication, a new paradigm may emerge that includes Kochi University of Technology human conversations with artificial intel- [email protected] ligence, given that talking “to” a computer is becoming as common as talking “through” a computer. It appears that it will not be long before we speak to a computer as if it was a human rather than just a machine. In 2011 Google introduced their voice search, and more recently, in 2014, a group of research- ers claimed that a computer had for the first time passed the Turing test (University of Reading, 2014), a “test of a machine’s ability to exhibit intelligent behavior equivalent to, or indistinguishable from, that of a human” (Wikipedia, 2015). Brief history of speech technology Human-to-computer interaction relies on sophisticated computerized speech recogni- tion algorithms. Research on speech recog- nition dates back to the 1930 when AT&T’s Bell Labs began using computers to tran- scribe human speech, but it wasn’t until the 1990s that it was available to the masses.

  • Video - Dive Into HTML5
    Video - Dive Into HTML5 You are here: Home ‣ Dive Into HTML5 ‣ Video on the Web ❧ Diving In nyone who has visited YouTube.com in the past four years knows that you can embed video in a web page. But prior to HTML5, there was no standards- based way to do this. Virtually all the video you’ve ever watched “on the web” has been funneled through a third-party plugin — maybe QuickTime, maybe RealPlayer, maybe Flash. (YouTube uses Flash.) These plugins integrate with your browser well enough that you may not even be aware that you’re using them. That is, until you try to watch a video on a platform that doesn’t support that plugin. HTML5 defines a standard way to embed video in a web page, using a <video> element. Support for the <video> element is still evolving, which is a polite way of saying it doesn’t work yet. At least, it doesn’t work everywhere. But don’t despair! There are alternatives and fallbacks and options galore. <video> element support IE Firefox Safari Chrome Opera iPhone Android 9.0+ 3.5+ 3.0+ 3.0+ 10.5+ 1.0+ 2.0+ But support for the <video> element itself is really only a small part of the story. Before we can talk about HTML5 video, you first need to understand a little about video itself. (If you know about video already, you can skip ahead to What Works on the Web.) ❧ http://diveintohtml5.org/video.html (1 of 50) [6/8/2011 6:36:23 PM] Video - Dive Into HTML5 Video Containers You may think of video files as “AVI files” or “MP4 files.” In reality, “AVI” and “MP4″ are just container formats.

  • Take a Dive Into HTML5
    Paper 2670-2018 Take a Dive into HTML5 Brandon George and Nathan Bernicchi, Grand Valley State University and Spectrum Health Office of Research Administration; Paul Egeler, Spectrum Health Office of Research Administration ABSTRACT The SAS® Output Delivery System (ODS) provides several options to save and display SAS graphs and tables. You are likely familiar with some of these ODS statements already, such as ODS RTF for rich text format, ODS PDF for portable document format, and ODS HTML for hypertext markup language. New to SAS 9.4, users have several additional ODS statements to choose from; among them is ODS HTML5. The ODS HTML5 statement differs from ODS HTML in that it uses HTML version 5.0 instead of HTML version 4.01. As such, the user can now take advantage of several new features introduced to the language. ODS HTML5 also uses a different default graphics output device, trading out the old standby portable network graphics (PNG) for the up-and-coming scalable vector graphics format (SVG). Throughout the paper, we will look at some of the differences between ODS HTML and ODS HTML5, with a focus on computer graphics. The paper also begins with a short primer on technologies such as HTML, CSS, and computer graphics. We will also demonstrate a few ways that you can enhance your reports using some ODS tricks. Our goal is to convince you to switch to ODS HTML5 and start using SVG as your graphical output of choice. INTRODUCTION In SAS®, you have numerous options for how to output your graphs and tables.

In this fi rst chapter, I discuss what HTML5 is as well as some of the history that led to the HTML5 specifi cation. One of the most interesting aspects of HTML5 is how game developers can profi t from many of the new features. In this chapter, I introduce some of these features and give a few quick examples of how they are used. I talk about the canvas element and WebGL and the huge improvements these additions make in terms of our ability to create dynamic graphics. I also cover the audio element and the added multiplayer possibilities created by the WebSockets specifi cation. Everybody likes new toys, but we mustn’t forget that in the real world, old and outdated browsers keep many users from using these bleeding-edge features. In this chapter, I show a few helpful tools for detecting which features you can safely use as well as how you can use these feature tests to load appropriate fallback solutions when necessary. Finally, I briefl y introduce the puzzle game that I use throughout the rest of the book to take you through the creation of a complete HTML5 game.

  • Inserting an Audio File with Dreamweaver Versions CS6 and Above 2013 Nigelbuckner.Com
    HTML5 Audio: Inserting an Audio file with Dreamweaver Versions CS6 and above 2013 nigelbuckner.com To begin, you will need two file formats of your audio: • mp4 • ogg To convert audio files online: http://media.io/ It is also possible to use wav files if you wish but it is not necessary. From the Insert panel drop down menu, choose Media: Click on HTML5 Audio: An audio icon will appear in the Design view and the <audio> tag will be entered into the code: Insert the audio files. Do this from the Properties panel at the base of the screen. In order to see the correct content in the Properties you may need to click away from the audio icon and then select it again or place the cursor in the audio tag. The audio files can be inserted from the Source field. The Source is the primary or best quality audio, generally an mp3 file. Selecting the primary source video should auto complete the Alt Source entries as well. Source 1 and 2 are optional audio files in case the primary source does not play. The other options are ogg and wav files. The code will now look like this: Choose Live view and the audio control will appear in the page but not play. Preview in a browser to play the audio. There are no options in the Properties panel to alter the width of the audio control. This needs to be done with a CSS rule. Exit live view to continue editing. Enter text in the Fallback Text field to the effect of “Your browser does not support HTML5 audio”.
