Speech Recognition: Fundamentals and Applications
About this audiobook
What Is Speech Recognition
Computer science and computational linguistics include a subfield called speech recognition that focuses on the development of approaches and technologies that enable computers to recognize spoken language and translate it into text. Speech recognition is an interdisciplinary subfield of computer science. It is also known as computer speech recognition (CSR) and speech to text (STT). Another name for it is automatic speech recognition (ASR). The domains of computer science, linguistics, and computer engineering are all represented in its incorporation of knowledge and study. Speech synthesis is the process of doing things backwards.
