Speech Recognition & Programming [closed]

Answer 1

I tried to program using general purpose speech recognition and came to the conclusion that programming is too far from regular spoken language. You need a specific grammar that it is tailored to coding (not necessarily language specific). As a result of this experience I looked into programming using speech recognition. It's still only a proof of concept, but to some extent I believe it is doable.

Things to consider:

• If you are healthy and can code at full speed with both hands, you will be faster with a keyboard/mouse. I type at around 60 wpm and there's no way I can go faster with voice. However, I'm a very slow typer with only one hand. I believe that you can decrease the amount of strain on your arms considerably by being assisted by voice commands as opposed to going voice only.
• There are activities within a programming IDE that are not coding/typing. Being able to perform many of these tasks using voice should further reduce strain.
• Not everyone works in an environment where it is feasible to sit and talk to the computer.

This paper presents the method for extracting the phase space point distribution parameter for improving the accuracy of speech recognition systems. By utilizing nonlinear or chaotic signal processing techniques to extract time domain based phase space features, a method is suggested for speech recognition
