Voice Recognition with Lotus Script - voice-recognition

I am trying to create a Voice Recognition software with Lotus Script. I looked around but have no idea where to begin. Any suggestions? Thank you. I looke

Depending on the use case, look for a solution in Java and implement it as a plugin for the client or kind of COM object.

Using different intonations with Watson text to speech

I am developing a PoC using Watson text to speech and Watson conversation.
Sometimes, the chatbot needs to ask a question, so I'd like text to speech to synthesize the voice using an interrogation intonation.
Is it possible to be done?
Watson Text to Speech supports SSML, and has expressive SSML tags.
The one you want to use is Uncertainty. As it is defined as "conveys an uncertain, interrogative message".
Example:
<express-as type="Uncertainty">
Could she still be in the office? She told me that she might leave early.
</express-as>
More details on it's usage is here:
https://console.bluemix.net/docs/services/text-to-speech/SSML-expressive.html#the-express-as-element
Yes, you can certainly use text-to-speech (TTS) for output and speech-to-text (STT) for input. You would need to use a middleware or app layer to drive the conversation and route the input/output to the other services (see "how to use" in the docs).
I have used the following TJBot recipe as a simple and good started for some projects: https://github.com/damiancummins/tell_the_time
Unfortunately Concatenative TTS may have problems to create correct intonation in questions. If you think it happens consistently or too often please open a bug.
If you have a specific question which gets incorrect intonation try to rephrase it a little bit if possible. A useful trick for this voice could be to use double question mark '??'

Best way to communicate to Catia via Browser

I have a question and was hoping that you could maybe help me out. I currently built an API to communicate between Catia (CAD-Application) and my browser so I can create parts/products read and write parameters etc.
One of my problems is that the only way I know to do this is via ActiveX which I really don't wanna do as it forces everyone to use IE11. Since CatiaV5 is a pretty old Software there won't be any elegant way to use it via some sort of Restful api or similar.
Since I've been working with JavaScript for a while now, did apps for phones but have no idea about browser extensions my question was this. Is it possible to write a Chrome Extension that actually uses com dlls and enables me to set up a connection to a piece of software (in this case Catia) and work with it.
NPAPI plug-ins could be the solution for my problem as it looks from the information I found but it's also supposed to also being phased out.
Do you think it's still worth looking into deeper and studying on writing such an NPAPI app or is there maybe a more elegant way you can think of?
Would be happy for some ideas and suggestions. Thanks in advance and
Greetings Chris
In modern browsers the only way to do this would be using native messaging:
Chrome
Firefox
Edge
FireBreath2 has an abstraction for building c++ plugins which supports native messaging, though the docs are still a little sparse.
Zetakey browser support NPAPI.
We provide HTML5 browser embedded system for industrial and enterprise application.

Please suggest any automation testing tool for IVR(Interactive Voice Response) testing?

I am looking for the automation of IVR process and scenario. Did some google search but did not get any good solution. My preference is Open Source and can be integrate with Java. If any paid tool also exist which have high capability of function and performance automation then also it will work for me.
Please suggest.
Thanks in advance!
You can use an Asterisk with a specific scenario, or SIPP in you use VoIP.
If you need to develop complex interactions with voice or DTMF, the standard dialplan or AGI could be boring... We had develop a free Asterisk Dialer script to apply a constant charge. Let me know if you need it.

Pastie with API and language detection

I'm trying to find a pastie like webservice that do perform some kind of automatic language detection (in term of programming language) and does the syntax coloring accordingly.
Most pastie websites do not have this feature I'd really love to have and use.
Thanks !
Pygments has something close : http://pygments.org/docs/quickstart/#lexer-and-formatter-lookup
>>> from pygments.lexers import guess_lexer, guess_lexer_for_filename
>>> guess_lexer('#!/usr/bin/python\nprint "Hello World!"')
<pygments.lexers.PythonLexer>
Not perfect but quite useful already.
But yeah I share your frustration with paste service, had the same. In my opinion actually the coloration should be done client side.
https://github.com/alexgorbatchev/SyntaxHighlighter
http://code.google.com/p/google-code-prettify/
are pretty nice in that regard.
I've finished to develop my own tool to do that. It's called UU and performs automatic syntax recognition using highlight.js.
http://uu.zoy.org is free and encode locally what you paste in your browser before sending it to the server.
The API is WIP.

I need a voice interpreter and translator for an app... where do I go?

Does anyone know where I can find a voice interpreter and translator that I can use on an app? I want voice recognition on a few languages that get translated in to text. Where can I find this or where should I start? I am a rookie so any help is appreciated.
Are you looking for a commercial solution? If so, Dragon has SDKs
