hi all.. I tried following tools by ur advice..
1. cmu sphinx: tried and managed run the demo programs.. but the accuracy is so bad. for that i tried for how to train the grammer. but for that i had no guidance.. docs give me the headache.. after 2 weeks.. i concluded that it will not be commercially useful for distributed application. 2. Naturally speaking: downloads only provided for cost. so no try. 3. windows sapi: windows provides redistributeable copies. also there are some python bindings available for to connect this engine. training with each user is easy in windows sapi ( for that i choosed this.) only limitation is usage within windows. so , concluded that using windows sapi.. am i correct? if u know any best articles/links for using windows sapi from python.. kindly give me that..
