Benefits of AI-Powered OCR
            Some of the benefits of AI-powered OCR are as follows:

               • High accuracy and less human errors
               • Fast processing
               • Save time and efforts

               • Increase productivity

            Speech Recognition

            Speech recognition or speech-to-text and vice versa, is the ability of a machine or program to identify
            words spoken aloud and convert them into readable text.




























            How Does Speech Recognition Work?

            Now let us understand the four steps involved in speech recognition:
            1.  Analyse the audio
            2.  Break it into parts

            3.  Digitise it into a computer-readable format
            4.  Apply a set of instructions to match the audio with the most suitable text representation

            Role of Artificial Intelligence in Speech Recognition

            AI-powered  speech recognition  technology  adds convenience  to  its users.  It has  the  ability  to
            recognise an individual based on their audio command. These systems use the grammar structure,
            syntax and composition of audio and voice signals to process the speech. The accuracy of conversion
            has almost reached 95%.
            Almost all the smartphones currently use a virtual assistant to understand the human voice and
            perform  actions  accordingly.  For  example,  an  android-based  smartphone  has  Google  Assistant
            as virtual assistant which listens voice commands and performs actions like make a call, send a
            message,  open  photos,  etc.  Some  other  voice  assistants,  which  works  on  speech  recognition
            technology, are Apple’s Siri, Amazon’s Alexa, Microsoft’s Cortana, etc.
