Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Is Speech Recognition Computer science and computational linguistics have spawned a subfield known as speech recognition, which is an interdisciplinary field that focuses on the development of methodologies and technologies that enable computers to recognize and translate spoken language into text. The primary advantage of this is that the text can then be searched. Automatic speech recognition, sometimes abbreviated as ASR, is another name for it, as is computer speech recognition and voice to text (STT). The domains of computer science, linguistics, and computer engineering are all represented in its incorporation of knowledge and study. Speech synthesis is the process of doing things backwards.
