Solve : speech recognition? |
|
Answer» I am going to talk about windows speech recognition. psh its nothing compared against win 7's. The good thing is that you dont even really have to train the thing pet peeve: when people say "its nothing compared to x" why? it doesn't make any sense. you can't compare anything to nothing, because- it's nothing. anything compared to nothing is basically everything that the nothing is not and cannot be until it becomes something more then nothing which is also difficult since nothing can come from nothing except more nothing. This is quite well illustrated with VB and "Null" and "Nothing" Code: [Select]Dim X,Y,Z,A Y=14,Z=12 X=Null if X=Null then print "X is null" 'prints nothing. A=Y+Z Print A=Null 'prints Null again Print A 'prints 26 A = Y*Z*X Print IsNull(A) 'prints true Print A*2 'prints Null "Null" is semantically similar to the REAL-world definition of "nothing"; Null Propagates through expressions, much like nothing through english sentences- Any expression containing Null is itself Null and therefore false. Additionally, comparing a existing something to nothing has grander mathematical implications; in this case, saying that the speech recognition is nothing compared to windows 7's is saying that windows 7's version is in fact infinitely better, (forgetting of course that comparing anything to nothing is itself a fruitless endeavor marked with 30-day RETURN policies and lost credit receipts that you could swear the waittress took), which is not exactly POSSIBLE, even as hyperbole. I hope you have all learned not to compare something to nothing, since it's a weighted argument at the very least; additionally, to proclaim that something "is nothing" is nothing more then baseless metaphor and should be treated as such, not as a appropriate metric to determine worth.Quote "Null" is semantically similar to the real-world definition of "nothing"; Null Propagates through expressions, much like nothing through english sentences- Any expression containing Null is itself Null and therefore false. Worthy of the Archives...i say. I forgot to turn the microphone on and I gave a nice little spiel, but it lacks nothing about this line. So the above line represents a null statement in speech recognition.sorry, I know the rules. Any how I ment compared against xp an you were limited with what you really could do. In 7 you can just start dictating right off an it will give the expected results for the most part.Thread necromancy (replying to a topic that hasn't been replied to in a long period of time...usually three weeks or more) is typically frowned upon here. The only exception is if the necromancy adds more information or a solution to the problem for the reference of others (i.e.: if someone is Googling for a solution to their problem and happens to run into the topic in question). Hello again,yes, no point in recycling something that's old. But for the benefit of others I will add some new content to this thread. Here is a YouTube video done by a young man who has a good voice and appears to be a quick study and does real good with multi monitor setup. It's an experience just to watch him and see how he takes control of Windows 7 speech recognition. All I can add is that it is true, the window seven speech recognition is the easiest speech recognition program. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3VZnyKViC4 Quote from: Geek-9pm on April 01, 2010, 11:56:02 AM Hello again,yes, no point in recycling something that's old.
