More information about this demo

Speech to text is well known and can work in a wide variety of languages. Speech to text can be used to transcribe anything which involves speech such as lectures and talks. Speech to text can also be used to improve accessibility for deaf people, for example.


Things to consider

Speech is a powerful tool and can be used to convey information (text tagging demo), sentiment (sentiment analysis demo) and tone of voice (tone analysis demo). Speech analysis could be used as a tool to help connect students to information, gather feedback from students (both information and sentiment/tone), as a tool to help student helpline calls determine sentiment or tone of voice, etc.


Speech to text works well for clearly annunciated speech in neutral accents but struggles with thick accents and quick speech, similar in respects to humans.
