The first alpha version of simon - open source speech recognition suite - has been released

simon.jpgThe first alpha version of simon has been released! It is neither stable nor feature-complete, but it should give you a pretty good overview of what simon will be like. The project provides a ready-to-use interface for the julius CSR engine for a handicapped child which is not able to use the keyboard well. It integrates into X11 and Windows.

The project was started by a group of four students who try to make life easier for Tobias Pölzl - a spastic kid who has trouble typing with a normal keyboard.

They had officially cleared the project for foreign participation. If you have some experience with C++, QT(4) and speak German, get yourself a copy from SVN and check it out!

bedahr who previously posted this story on Slashdot wrote that Simon can import dictionaries directly from wiktionary (a subproject of wikipedia) or from files formated in the HADIFIX- or HTK format and grammar structures directly from personal texts. It also provides means to train the language model with new samples and add new words.
