Re: [GD-Linux] text to speech and speech recognition libraries

[Phil C. <phi...@te...>]

The Mac used to have something called PlainTalk - don't know if it comes 
with MacOS X.

There seem to be numerous commercial packages that will run on Linux, 
e.g. IBM ViaVoice.

On the open-source front, I just read in IEEE Spectrum that Intel 
released an audio-visual speech recognition library as open-source. It's 
on sourceforge in the opencvlibrary project as the openAVSR package. 
Looks like it'll run on windows and linux (x86, I assume). That's 
probably more than what you're looking for, but I thought it sounded 
pretty cool.

Got a lot of hits for speech libraries on sourceforge, many of them 
implemented in Java, e.g. FreeTTS (speech synthesis). CMU Sphinx for 
speech recognition seems like a possibility. Apache-style license and 
runs on windows, linux and java.
