Speech recognition

Speech recognition appeals to a wide range of skills for enabling a computer to interpret the human voice and to correctly react to it. The problems to be solved range from the most basic ones, such as detecting human voice activity, to more challenging issues such as producing live closed-captioning of television broadcasts or determining the topic of a telephone conversation.
