Apr 20 13:42:15 <anirban1998[m]> jkridner: Have developed the typing as well as speech prototypes of two of the games...but some errors are occurring while trying to operate the Speech-Processing and decoding through the Shell. Working on them now. If possible please review https://github.com/AnirbanBanik1998/Speak_and_Spell so that I can get to know if I am working correctly
Apr 20 17:19:06 <jkridner> anirban1998[m]: can you get feedback from hendersa, ds2, anujdeshpande, welsh ?
Apr 20 17:20:07 <anirban1998[m]> Ok Sure
Apr 20 17:26:21 <anirban1998[m]> hendersa: ds2 anujdeshpande can u provide some feedback on how should I try to improve my work...It is actually a basic prototype
Apr 20 17:26:21 <anirban1998[m]>  https://github.com/AnirbanBanik1998/Speak_and_Spell
Apr 20 18:17:01 <ds2> that git hub is nice but can you give me a 30 second summary of where things are at (what, if anything you have done or know works,etc)
Apr 20 18:17:47 <ds2> also, how confident are you in sphinx?
Apr 20 18:18:01 <ds2> audio quality? volume? any of things things being considered?
Apr 20 18:27:08 <anirban1998[m]> ds2 I have been working on recreating the original games...that were in the Speak and Spell...till now only created the hangman and Spell It games...two versions of both games...one in which the input is typed through keyboard...and the other in which Speech input from microphone is being taken. Running the shell script helps run the entire thing sequentially...the first work being scraping the wordlists from
Apr 20 18:27:09 <anirban1998[m]> wikitionary
Apr 20 18:27:42 <ds2> is the plan to have a keyboard?
Apr 20 18:28:17 <anirban1998[m]> No...I am just keeping it as an added option
Apr 20 18:28:26 <ds2> 'k
Apr 20 18:28:38 <ds2> how confident are you with the speech stuff?
Apr 20 18:29:28 <ds2> (both sphinx and espeak)

Apr 20 18:35:20 <anirban1998[m]> Regarding the Speech stuff...while searching for an offline speech processing application...came across Sphinx...basically gone through tests like running the pocketsphinx continuous to get continuous input from microphone...and improve it by decoding the results to a text file...it has been the basis of voice version of the games. Also worked on getting text from an input wav file and decoding it...just need to
Apr 20 18:35:20 <anirban1998[m]> work on minimising noise...and improving accuracy
Apr 20 18:45:29 <anirban1998[m]> Regarding espeak...am quite confident in it...having worked on it for a longer period.
Apr 20 18:55:40 <anirban1998[m]> Some bugs are still present... like in automating the speech capturing process instead of manually opening another terminal to do the same...but hope to resolve them soon...and have to work on improving accuracy of speech recognition...so that every letter is heard clearly
