Speech recognition is the technology that enables the conversion of spoken language into text by using algorithms and machine learning models. It is crucial for applications like virtual assistants, transcription services, and accessibility tools, enhancing user experience by allowing hands-free operation and interaction with devices.

Speech synthesis is when computers talk like people. It helps us talk to machines and listen to them, just like we do with our friends.

Speech Synthesis

Speech enhancement is the process of improving the quality and intelligibility of speech signals, often in the presence of noise or other distortions. It is widely used in applications such as telecommunications, hearing aids, and voice-controlled systems to ensure clear communication and user satisfaction.

Speech Enhancement

Human-computer interaction (HCI) is the study of how people interact with computers and to design technologies that let humans interact with computers in novel ways. It encompasses the design, evaluation, and implementation of interactive computing systems for human use and the study of major phenomena surrounding them.

Accessibility ensures that products, services, and environments are usable by people with a wide range of abilities and disabilities, promoting inclusivity and equal access. It encompasses designing for physical, cognitive, and technological barriers to create an equitable experience for all users.
