Voice recognition from a list of possibilities in Linux
Does anybody know of a way to perform voice recognition in linux, and make a best match of the recorded sound to a list of options?
E.g. if you had a contact list
Jane Doe
John Doe
Bill Smith
Anne Frank
And you had a .WAV file with somebody speaking one of these names,
and you end up with something like this:
#1: John Doe, 95% match
#2: Jane Doe, 60% match
#3: Bill Smith, 3% match
#4: Anne Frank, 1% match
I've looked at Sphinx, but without some sample code or a proof of concept I'm pretty lost, it is way too complicated for me.
I was kind-of hoping there was a third party tool already crafted that does something similar to this that I could invoke from a shell script or something.

Have you looked at Cepstral TTS, LumenVox TTS or FEstival TTS ?

Those are all text-to-speech. I need to go the other way around.
Sorry, I miss read this first time -..
What you want is a Voice XML solution, the one I have used in the past is VoiceGenie, but I think they were purchased by someone else.

Hi Phonebuff,
I've done a bit of research into VoiceXML, it looks like a nice way of describing what your IVR is going to do, what the voice options and paths are etc.
But I don't actually see a PRODUCT that I can actually use to implement it. I see a few hosted products but what do you suggest I sign up for / purchase / run a trial of?
