<DIV></DIV>Pintu --<BR><BR>Speex is an audio codec that can encode and decode
audio for transmission over network (or for storage).<BR>Specifically, it's
called speex because it is tailored to work well at encoding speech at small
bitrates. <BR><BR>Speex does not do speech recognition or text to speech.<BR>You
may wish to look at CMU's speech page: <A
href="http://www.speech.cs.cmu.edu/">http://www.speech.cs.cmu.edu/</A> (look at
Sphynx).<BR>And I'll tell you - It is much more difficult (and processor
intensive) to to speech recognition than it is to to speech synthesis (though
both are quite difficult). <BR><BR>~Keith Kyzivat<BR><BR>
