How to get offline voice recognition in python

Question

I want to create a personal assistant using Python 3 but I require a voice recognition system which can convert speech to text for me and then I can use text for further processing. What is the best way to do it using Python. OS is Windows.

Answer 1

Being on a Windows system might make things more tough simply because most of the fast language processing type libraries are going to have some C code with them and it's not unusual for that code to not be Windows friendly. You'll want to probably look into what the Mycroft project is doing since they've tackled a lot of this stuff. Bear in that their project isn't offline and that voice recognition and natural language processing is complicated and tends to be CPU intensive.

Answer 2

Though my response might be late and perhaps half the solution, I highly recommend pythons SpeechRecognition library as well as pocketsphinx. As for text to speech a simple way would be to utilize win32com.client
