NAME="ABOUT">2.1. About This Document</H2
><P
>This document is targeted at the beginner to intermediate level Linux
user interested in learning about Speech Recognition and trying it out.
It may also help the interested developer in explaining the basics of
speech recognition programming. </P
><P
>I started this document when I began researching what speech
recognition software and development libraries were available for Linux.
Automated Speech Recognition (ASR or just SR) on Linux is just starting
to come into its own, and I hope this document gives it a push in the
right direction - by supporting both users and developers of ASR
technology.</P
><P
>I have left a variety of SR techniques out of this document, and
instead I have focused on the "HOWTO" aspect (since this is a howto...).
I have included a Publications section so the interested reader can
find books and articles on anything not covered here. This is not
meant to be a definitive statement of ASR on Linux.</P
