Also, Nokia has actually invested quite a lot of research into doing larger vocabulary speech recognition on their phones. They are just recently able to do isolated word SMS dictation with a 22000 word vocabulary on a S60 2nd edition phone (sorry, abstract only): http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1180995.1181020 This is still a less complex problem than recognizing connected speech. That said, I am still working on real-time 5000-word connected dictation on the N800/N810. I've succeeded in offloading some computation to the DSP, and the next step is to implement model compression techniques similar to the ones mentioned in that paper. _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
