IBM Watson Speech Recognition (SR) Plugin 1.6.0 to the UniMRCP Server (UMS) has been released.
The plugin is based on the following components:
- UniMRCP Server 1.6.0
- IBM Watson Speech to Text API v1
- Libevent 2.1.9
- Rapidjson 1.1.0
The binaries are currently available for the following Linux distributions:
- Red Hat / CentOS 7 (unimrcp-watson-sr-1.6.4-1.el7.x86_64.rpm)
- Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (unimrcp-watson-sr_1.6.4-xenial_amd64.deb)
- Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (unimrcp-watson-sr_1.6.4-bionic_amd64.deb)
This release introduces supplementary features and enhancements to the existing functionality.
The detailed list of changes introduced in this release follows.
New Features
- Added support for HTTP proxy in communication with license servers available as a service.
- Added support for new parameters settable per recognition request to the service such as 'grammar-name', 'end-of-phrase-silence-time'. The parameters can be set globally in umswatsonsr.xml and be specified per recognition request either via vendor-specific parameters or optional attributes passed to a built-in grammar or via metadata set in an SRGS XML grammar. See the Usage Guide.
- Added support for inter-result timeout. If the specified timeout is elapsed, input is considered complete. The timeout defaults to 0 (disabled) and can be overridden per recognition request.
- If the configuration parameter 'use-logging-tag' is set to 'true', the header field Logging-Tag, if specified, is used as a suffix while composing file names of utterances and RDRs.
Fixed Problems
Configuration Parameters
