I haven’t tried Nuance MRCP interface but I have lot’s of experience
evaluating the Nuance technology.

Today, Nuance considered being the state-of-the-art in this field and
they’re OEM’ing it to most tier-1 vendors, most notably: Microsoft and
Genesis/Alcatel/Lucent. Most likely any ASR application you’ll encounter
from a top-tier carrier today is based on Nuance.

I’m particularly familiar with Nuance NLP product and their extensive VXML
interface and found it to be most efficient.

 

I’ve tested better hardware-based DSP speech verification/authentication
engines but it was quite cumbersome to integrate with as opposed to Nuance
ease of use.

 

The CMU sphinx and it’s realtime mini-version pocketsphinx are a great
initiative and hopefully, as a university backed open source project, it
will exceed Nuance strength and usability soon enough.

 

My 2c worth.

 

Cheers,

Yuval Hertzog

Can you instruct me / point me to instructions on how to use xlite or alike
to talk into Nuance ASR via MRCP and see the spoken words on the console?

I don’t care about efficiency for the moment, I just want to evaluate
Nuance.

BTW

What do you think of their ASR? Other ASRs?

mod_openmrcp was tested with Nuance along the way.  But you'll need to
understand the speech interfaces in FreeSWITCH to use it effectively.

Does anybody know how to get some softphone (xlite) to talk to nuance and
get the text out?
