Speech Recognition Technology 101

We live in a noisy world. But what sounds are relevant for our consideration? Speech recognition software finds ways to map the acoustic signals of speech into word sequences, mapping patterns and attributing relevancy.

The complexity and contextual nature of spoken language require several sets of algorithms working in unison to interpret its meaning. Within this system, Markov Models provide a framework for mapping spectral vector sequences, Fourier Analysis can display the information within the audio waveform, and N-Grams give probabilistic prototypes of meaning when presented with a group of phonemes, words, or phrases.

Natural language processing (NLP) can be incredibly complicated. NLP software interprets the intentions behind complex language in much the same way human beings can by utilizing sophisticated models.

LET US HELP YOU

Speech Recognition Development Services

Speech Recognition requires a combination of software development and a large amount of data to successfully train your program.

We have the knowledge, the experience, and the resources.

    Speech Corpus Collection

A Speech Corpus is a database of audio files and text transcriptions.

We can help you record, clean, and develop a speech corpus collection that takes into consideration all of the various factors that might influence your data; reading vs conversational, issuing commands to a device, multi-speaker conversations, and so forth. A quality speech corpus is critical for recognition accuracy.

Unless your product will be used in the pristine silence of a recording studio, having acoustic noise-canceling capability will be essential for filtering out unwanted sound.

By using audio cleaning algorithms optimized for their specialized environment, we can improve your product’s recognition accuracy.

Weighing acoustic cues, measuring the phonemic length of vowels, and conducting other language assessments can help speech recognition software adapt to the unique circumstances of its intended environment.

Our acoustic model training can aid this technology to better understand regional accents or unique intonations of speech.

Adding value to relevant keywords, phrases, and patterns commonly heard within an environment can build a more intelligent inference engine for gauging intention.

Live data (like trending words on social media) can be incorporated to design speech recognition software that is adaptable to the ever-changing nature of contemporary language.

Speaker labeling can be used to identify multiple speakers in a conference call, or undesirable phrases (like profanity) can be proactively filtered and blocked.

With in-depth industry insight and expertise in developing speech recognition features, our experts are apt at discovering the best solutions for your project. Visit our QA and Testing page to learn more.

In many instances, the value of privacy can be difficult to overstate. Information may become vulnerable due to the numerous ways it can be accessed on public servers or made susceptible to other agents.

Salvo Software can help you develop your own private speech recognition system to host on your own private servers.

How Speech Recognition Works

Using our own recording system near airports across the country, we captured communication between air traffic controllers and pilots, and used that to train an acoustic model for our speech recognition engine. In addition to the audio data, we also captured air traffic ADS-B information (the method by which air traffic communicates their position, speed, etc.).

Using our expertly curated speech corpus we developed a high accuracy recognition model for air traffic controller communication.

Frequently Asked Questions

Humans have evolved to more easily distinguish voices amongst background noise. Before we are even born, our brains are already undergoing a process of linguistic programming. By the time we become adults, our native language ability feels automatic and simple. This is only because our DNA is built for that kind of learning, and it is an innate feature of our cognitive development. Identifying meaning from an audio signal is inherently complex. People communicate in various accents, pitches, and tones of voice. All of us have different speech patterns and methods of inflection. Environmental conditions only add further complexity, as speech recognition software must learn to discern between intentional speech and unintended signal noise. Even when someone is doing their best to clearly explain, and the environment is not adding any auditory distractions, language is still incredibly complex on its own. English alone contains a myriad of homophones like sail/sale and sell/cell; where meaning can shift wildly depending on context.

Yes. Though the two are often used interchangeably, they are different. Speech recognition has the objective of figuring out what is being said while voice recognition (aka speaker recognition) is trying to determine who is speaking. Salvo Software primarily focuses on speech recognition (like speech-to-text) rather than voice recognition.

All options are available. Ideally, your best choice is sourcing or creating a corpus collection specific to your own project, and refining that collection over time. We specialize in collecting robust speech corpora that can be used to train your own acoustic models. However, we also have existing speech corpora that can be used as a foundation for development. We can apply the method that makes the most sense for your project.
