recommended alternatives for speech recognition other than Microsoft Speech libraries?
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to create a Speech Recognition support for my program. I want to make it so that if I say something in my microphone, the program just writes what I said in Label1. I looked for Speech Recognition codes in MSDN and Google, but I didn't find anything useful. I found a code, but it was for VB.net, I tried but it didn't work in VB 2010.
View 1 RepliesI just want to know that how can i highlight text on a richtextbox control while reading the text using speech sdk control. I mean the word currently speak automatically selected in the RichTextBox.
View 2 RepliesEssentially I am trying to replicate the Windows 7 (In-Windows) activation key TextBox form. The Form where it will auto capitalize letters, remove or deny all non alphanumeric characters except dashes every 5 characters that will be auto-input.I assume this can be done with a fairly complicated replacement Regular Expression but I cannot seem to create one to fit the needs.
This is an Example of what I have right now, but it creates an infinite loop as it removes all characters including dashes, than adds a dash, which changes the text and removes the dash again.

i have been trying to remove special characters. i am not able to remove many crlf in middile of the string.
View 3 RepliesI need to create a console program that allows you to enter a string, of which is then outputted in reverse.
Sample:
Input: Diewas
Output: saweiD
Apparently I need to find out about strings and will also need to use a loop.
Not sure if too many people know this, but the following line will cause an error:
GroupName.Substring(0, 3) = "jt_"
....if the length of GroupName is less than 3 characters. I always thought it would simply return whatever characters in GroupName, but no, it errors. I must be thinking of the old VB6 days.So, I now have to change the code to:
If (GroupName.Length > 2) Then
If (GroupName.Substring(0, 3) = "jt_") Then
Note that the two comparisons need to be on separate lines. If they are on the same line, such as:
If (GroupName.Length > 2) and (GroupName.Substring(0, 3) = "jt_") Then then the code will still fail as the length command is executed at the same time as the substring command- which will cause the error when the GroupName length is less than 3.Just thought that those of us not aware of this should be!

I have two textboxes. I type in one of them and the text gets copied in real time into another textbox. There is one catch. I need to replace specific character with something else.
If I enter a quote " in textbox1, it has to be replaced with " in textbox2.
I started with something like the below code, but obviously this does not work (tried different stuff - this is for demonstration only). In the example below 'a' represents " , and 'b' represents "
Private Sub TextBox1_KeyUp(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyUp
TextBox2.Text = TextBox1.Text

With the shape of really large characters such as numbers and alphabetic characters + others, is there a way to get that shape as a REGION please?Imagine a really fat snake forming the letter S or two rectangles placed together to form a large letter L or a T like the shapes in TETRIS.
1) Does anyone know of anything in VB.Net that can translate such shapes into a System. Drawing.Region or know of a project elsewhere that achieves this please?
2) While I'm on the subject, how would you SCALE UP / DOWN a System.Drawing.Region please? How would you work out the Transform Matrix required please?

Program works good, it is mixing characters good, but it doesn't write text to the file. It will write text in console, but not in file. Note: Program is working only with words that are divisible by 2, but it's not a problem. Also, it does not return any error message.
I'm making a custom control suited for handling passwords. I have created a control that inherits from a text box and I have implemented a lot of things so far. But what i want to do now is create a system so that when a user types It will display his last character typed for a X amount of time. Is there a way to turn only selected characters into password characters and still be able to get the password text from the Text property ?
View 4 RepliesI know that the topic is kind of weird, but I will explain that here. I am reading text from a text box and inserting that into a listbox. I am wanting to read what the user inputs into the text box and add a character between each character they type. Here is what im wanting to do written out[code]...
View 4 Repliesexample. i have 2 textboxes and if there empty it says "Incorrect Information", but how do i make it that like when a person enters something into the textbox1 it can be 3 values minimum.. like it could be eather 2 letters 1 number or what ever just more than 3 values (no special characters), and on the password.. 6 values minimum (no special characters).

So I have an ASP.Net (vb.net) application. It has a textbox and the user is pasting text from Microsoft Word into it. So things like the long dash (charcode 150) are coming through as input. Other examples would be the smart quotes or accented characters. In my app I'm encoding them in xml and passing that to the database as an xml parameter to a sql stored procedure. It gets inserted in the database just as the user entered it.
The problem is the app that reads this data doesn't like these characters. So I need to translate them into the lower ascii (7bit I think) character set. How do I do that? How do I determine what encoding they are in so I can do something like the following. And would just requesting the ASCII equivalent translate them intelligently or do I have to write some code for that?
Also maybe it might be easier to solve this problem in the web page to begin with. When you copy the selection of characters from Word it puts several formats in the clipboard. The straight text one is the one I want. Is there a way to have the html textbox get that text when the user pastes into it? Do I have to set the encoding of the web page somehow?

I'm doing my senior project on an audio project; when I came to using the Speech SDK it was great when it was about Text to speech; but I'm finding a hard time using it the other way round; speech to text. is there any sample code to help me start off?, and is it possible to change the vocabulary list in a way that when ever I say a word that is in the list than it is written down; if it is not possible is it possible that I can use the dictation function to write words according to the phonemes I say?

what I gather, the biggest difference between the old SAPI 5.1 and SAPI 5.3 is that SAPI 5.3 actually takes less code to do some of the same things that SAPI 5.1 does. This is just a simple example that runs notepad and says it is before doing so.One thing to remember is that the name of speech lib is changed again. Now you have to do this: Project -> Add Reference -> .NET -> System.Speech
imports system.speech
Public Class Form1
Public WithEvents recognizer As New System.Speech.Recognition.SpeechRecognitionEngine
Dim gram As New System.Speech.Recognition.DictationGrammar()
[code]....
gram is a DictationGrammar object. As it turns out, there are two grammar objects in SAPI 5.3. As you've probably already guessed, DictationGrammar is for spoken language and the normal grammar object is for simple grammar rules.
So basically, Load the grammar, set audio to the default input device and then start an Async recognize call. They have a blocking recognize call and one thing to note here is that it will turn itself off after each sucessful recognized phrase. Meaning that you have to recall Async recognize at the end of the GotSpeech sub if you want to keep picking up voice commands. As it stands, this will pick up one command and no more because it stops recognition.
One neat thing about the synthesis engine is that you can specify things like ".NET" to be said as "dot net" by Anna. Also, as it stands, the periods aren't said and so are pretty much useless. It acts just like the Vista Recognition engine also so if you spell out a word, Anna will spell it out too.In this example there is an undeclared variable named "cmd" that I fail to understand. What is the role of it and where does it obtain it's value from. I actually assume it should be the one to get the decoded\recognized text from the recognizer but not sure how that is achieved.
I'm trying to make a form in VB.Net that takes speech input (not text-to-speech) on my Windows XP Pro computer.I've tried to install Microsoft Speech SDK 5.1 according to url..The problem is my Office 2007 does not have an Alternative User Input feature, as it says in the instuctions. So is there any way to get this on my computer? If not can you suggest any alternative other that buying a new computer for making my Visual Basic .Net form speech-enterable?

So, in one function, we'll say it's the load function, it declares a speech string: [Code] I'm trying to get it to abort reading the audio but can't seem to figure out how to get it working. I've seen examples that have used SVSFlagsAsync and SVSFPurgeBefore Speak but I can't get either to be recognized and I've added (what I believe to be) the necessary resources to the library and added the imports at the top of the page. Does anyone know how to interrupt the speech?
