About

CMUSphinx toolkit is a leading speech recognition toolkit with various tools used to build speech applications. CMU Sphinx toolkit has a number of packages for different tasks and applications. It’s sometimes confusing what to choose. To cleanup, here is the list:

• Pocketsphinx — lightweight recognizer library written in C.
• Sphinxbase — support library required by Pocketsphinx
• Sphinx4 — adjustable, modifiable recognizer written in Java
• Sphinxtrain — acoustic model training tools

Of course, many things are missing. Things like building a phonetic model capable of handling an infinite vocabulary, postprocessing of the decoding result, sense extraction and other semantic tools should be added one day. Probably you should take it on.
