Voice Recognition Implementation
-
Hi
You can try this
Running pocketsphinx Speech Recognition on Ubuntu
https://www.unicom.com/blog/entry/686 -
@mrjj i have installed cmu-sphinx and pocketsphinx using the instructions given in this link http://jrmeyer.github.io/installation/2016/01/09/Installing-CMU-Sphinx-on-Ubuntu.html is it correct ?
If yes, where i will get the lib of this and how to use this lib to make use of voice recognition ?

-
Im not sure if it comes with a .pro file?
Its should be clear from build instructions what to do
on each platform.sudo make install
That will copy the "result" (exe, .a ) to a place so its installed. -
The tut you found is not Qt related so its with normal linux toolchain
for CMU-Sphinx.He starts with
"When I installed SPHINX for the first time in September 2015, it was not a fun experience."So be prepared to really read what he does and read docs for it. its not trivial to build.
-
First you get it to build then
use in Qt. its in 2 steps.
You really MUST read docs slow and carefully ,
else u miss a step and it wont work.So first step is to get it to build using the tuts.
-
The tut you found seemed good?
http://jrmeyer.github.io/installation/2016/01/09/Installing-CMU-Sphinx-on-Ubuntu.htmlSo if you have build the so files you are to use them
This part mostly fails due to paths so make sure u check.You can open .pro file then, in open file, right click and select
Add library. Fill it out and make sure!! its correct.
Linux lib, shared etc.http://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-project-qmake-libraries.html
Then you should be able to link against it.

https://github.com/cmusphinx/pocketsphinx
Same story with pocket
http://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-project-qmake-libraries.html
also MAKE 100% sure you did as it says
"Prerequisites
You must have SphinxBase, which you can download from http://cmusphinx.sourceforge.net. Download and unpack it to the same parent directory as PocketSphinx, so that the configure script and project files can find it. On Windows, you will need to rename 'sphinxbase-X.Y' (where X.Y is the SphinxBase version number) to simply 'sphinxbase' for this to work."

@mrjj i want to attach the screen shot of what files i have got after running the steps in that link http://jrmeyer.github.io/installation/2016/01/09/Installing-CMU-Sphinx-on-Ubuntu.html for both sphinxbase and pocketsphinx but i qm not able to do that...how can we attach the screen shots here ???
-
Use external site like postimage.org and paste link here or use
 -
Well if all works and says no "error" of any kind,
I would try one of the existing examples
and see if it works.Then I would start think about how to use it in Qt.

@mrjj after running the command pocketsphinx_continuous i get the following result

Does look like the tuts so I think its working :)
\o/ good work -
