I am working on a plugin that connects to a speech
recognizer. Is there any
interest in this in the Nutch community?
It would not be a speech recognizer plugin as such though
anyone interested
in doing this should probably look at the open-source
Sphinx4 project for
that purpose (personally I don't think it's a good idea to
spawn a new
speech recogniser each type there is some audio to be parsed
so it would be
best run as a server). Rather, what I'm thinking of is a
plugin that
connects to a web-service: your Nutch instance sends the
audio (from mp3/wav
etc. MIME types) to be recognized and gets back a text
stream that can be
indexed by Nutch. The web-service would probably be free for
small volumes
and fee-based for larger volumes or high throughput since
it's pretty
compute expensive running decent quality speech
recognisers.
How much interest is there in indexing audio/video in this
manner?
