Tensorflow Speech Recognition

Speech recognition using google's tensorflow deep learning framework, sequence-to-sequence neural networks.

Replaces caffe-speech-recognition, see there for some background.

Update 2024: Use Whisper !

This (relatively) old project is NO LONGER UP TO DATE.
The tensorflow 1.0 used is not compatible anymore and the theory is no longer state of the art either.
We highly recommend you check out and use whisper

Update 2020: Mozilla released DeepSpeech

They achieve good error rates. Free Speech is in good hands, go there if you are an end user. For now this project is only maintained for educational purposes.

Ultimate goal

Create a decent standalone speech recognition for Linux etc. Some people say we have the models but not enough training data. We disagree: There is plenty of training data (100GB here and 21GB here on openslr.org , synthetic Text to Speech snippets, Movies with transcripts, Gutenberg, YouTube with captions etc etc) we just need a simple yet powerful model. It's only a question of time...

Sample spectrogram, That's what she said, too laid?

Sample spectrogram, Karen uttering 'zero' with 160 words per minute.

Installation

clone code

git clone https://github.com/pannous/tensorflow-speech-recognition
cd tensorflow-speech-recognition
git clone https://github.com/pannous/layer.git
git clone https://github.com/pannous/tensorpeers.git

pyaudio

requirements portaudio from http://www.portaudio.com/

git clone  https://git.assembla.com/portaudio.git
./configure --prefix=/path/to/your/local
make
make install
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/path/to/your/local/lib
export LIDRARY_PATH=$LIBRARY_PATH:/path/to/your/local/lib
export CPATH=$CPATH:/path/to/your/local/include
source ~/.bashrc

install pyaudio

pip install pyaudio

Getting started

Toy examples: ./number_classifier_tflearn.py ./speaker_classifier_tflearn.py

Some less trivial architectures: ./densenet_layer.py

Later: ./train.sh ./record.py

Sample spectrogram or record.py

Update: Nervana demonstrated that it is possible for 'independents' to build speech recognizers that are state of the art.

Fun tasks for newcomers

Extensions

Extensions to current tensorflow which are probably needed:

Even though this project is far from finished we hope it gives you some starting points.
