Automatic Interpretation of English Speech
نویسنده
چکیده
Automatic interpretation of human speech into different languages is difficult as it involves problems of speech recognition and synthesis as well as machine translation. Although several hand-held devices have been developed to provide pre-recorded spoken phrases, only a few are capable of uttering phrases with unrestricted dialog, and these are often limited to a few languages. This paper describes a new, portable prototype incorporating readily available free or commercial software that interprets between English and 20 different languages. A test of the system with German and Spanish shows relatively accurate results.
