Voice key was recently released, it contains
 
1) the Sphinx-based voice dictation project, "Voice Keyboard" 
2) a set of helper scripts for making language models 
3) sphinx3_livesegment, which is pocketsphinx_continuous (tty-continuous.c), ported from pocketsphinx to sphinx3, except that it also listens on stdin for a small set of commands which can be used to dynamically switch the language model or change some configuration parameters 
4) a couple of language models trained on corpora capturing my own computer use (one of them contains some word frequencies and one of them contains keystroke frequencies) 
5) a set of scripts and instructions for creating and using acoustic training data 
 
Voice Keyboard has a vocabulary of about 17,000 words roughly corresponding to the vocabulary of lm_giga_20k with proper nouns removed. It supports typing individual keystroke using codewords such, for example HENRY ECHO LIMA LIMA OSCAR. It also has codewords corresponding to most movement and modifer keys, for example CONTROL LEFT ARROW. Accuracy on the keystroke codewords is decent. Accuracy on the full vocabulary is not great but not unbearable either -- I have been using Voice Keyboard to do most of my typing for the past two months.

See the project documentation (in the download; particularly HACKING and also the doc/ directory) for more detailed information on items 2-5.

sphinx3-0.7 requires sphinxbase 0.3, also make sure you don'thave any other version installed.

This is the Python bug, check this and downgrade:

It seems like sphinxbase-0.3, sphinx3-0.7, lm3g2dmp, SphinxTrain make install without errors, and the python error did not appear this time.  When I attempt to make voice-keyboard, I still get his error:

fwiw, my gcc is 4.2.

Any ideas?

It seems you still need to work with svn trunk versions. Alternatively I think you can just try to fix this livesegment code.

I can remove python-setuptools and get svn version to install of sphinxbase and sphinx3.  But, make install in voicekey still fails on sphinx3_livesegment.c errors.

 

You meantioned that sphinx3_livesegment.c was based on pocket sphinx.  Is it possible you have a version of pocket sphinx installed which enables the build?  Which version of pocket sphinx did you get sphinx3_livesegment.c from?  I'll try installing that too.

 

Unfortunately, I'm not a coder, so can't figure out how to fix sphinx3_livesegment.c.

 

As a last resort, could you post your binaries on your project repository?

 

thanks,

 

Paul

I might have a clue.  In your announcement, you said:

 

3) sphinx3_livesegment, which is pocketsphinx_continuous (tty-continuous.c), ported from pocketsphinx to sphinx3, except that it also listens on stdin for a small set of commands which can be used to dynamically switch the language model or change some configuration parameters

 

But, in my downloaded package, the sphinx3_livesegment.c is the same as tty-continuous.c , which is in the parent directory.  Is it possible you put the wrong file in the package?  Please check again.

 

If it was correct, then please provide the binary.  I've tried compiling on another linux, fedora 10, with the same failure as occured on ubuntu.

 

regards,

 

Paul

Sorry, it's not my anouncement, I suggest you to contact author if you need any help on this application. I also tried to compile it for some time, but failed.

As it turns out, I needed to install the python-all-dev package to get all the header files needed to build this.


There's a new version 0.1.1 available, but there have been a lot of improvements since that, so you ought to contact the author for an update if you want to try it.
