Can persons with distinctive dialects successfully use the iCommunicator?
The iCommunicator program uses a speech recognition engine that is based on an enhanced acoustical model. As such, during speech/voice recognition (S/VR) training, the program compares the individual speaker s speech and voice characteristics (e.g., acoustical, linguistic, lexical) to the built-in model. The speech recognition engine uses continuous recognition of natural speech as it translates speech to text. Anecdotal data indicates that persons with distinctive dialects can achieve a high level of translation accuracy when using the program, although it may require slightly more time to train the program to recognize the speaker s unique speech and voice characteristics. Authorized iCommunicator Resellers [LINK TO RESELLERS] are experts at speech and voice recognition training and can be contacted to discuss available training options.
