Description
Current voice recognition software relies on statistical techniques to determine which words a user has said. In this project we are attempting to leverage the semantic context of what the user has previously said to improve future predictions. We are using ConceptNet, a semantic network created from the Open Mind Common Sense knowledge base to disambiguate phonetically similar words and improve overall recognition accuracy.
