Speech recognition: Speech recognition is the ability of a machine or program to identify words
and phrases in spoken language and convert them to a machine-readable format. Rudimentary
speech recognition software has a limited vocabulary of words and phrases, and it may only identify
these if they are spoken very clearly. More sophisticated software has the ability to accept natural
speech.
How it works?
Speech recognition works using algorithms through acoustic and language modelling. Acoustic
modelling represents the relationship between linguistic units of speech and audio signals; language
modelling matches sounds with word sequences to help distinguish between words that sound
