Voice Assistant: Magical Speech Recognition Tool

Sapna Sharma

Abstract


There was always a need of someone who can assist you in any scenario and make you work and make life easy to move as per your direction and need answer to the one and foremost question is Voice Assistant. In this digital era, a kind of digital assistant that uses “Voice Recognition”, “Natural Language” and “Speech Synthesis” in order to provide aids to the users through types of smart applications such as smart phones or voice recognition applications is known as Voice Assistant. Voice Assistant is mainly based on today’s magical world “Artificial Intelligence”, or we can say as another world “Machine Learning” build on Cognitive Computing Technologies. Various and different types and levels of “Voice Assistant” are available with various functionalities and features, which have targeted various levels of users. Cognitive technology is typically the mental action in order to learn and acquire through various modes of thinking procedures like thoughts, experience and different types of senses. It is the methodology which tells and locates how a computer can interact with human beings. It involves various inspired architecture and also comes with a concept of “Neuroscience”.
