Support is now included in dragonfly2 v0.20.0! You can try a self-contained distribution available below, of either stable or development versions.

Notes

  • Improved Recognition: better graph construction/compilation should give significantly better overall recognition.
  • Weights on Any Elements: you can now easily add weights to any element (including compound elements in MappingRules), in addition to any rule/grammar.
  • Pluggable Alternative Dictation: you can optionally pass a callable as alternative_dictation to define your own, external dictation engine.
  • Stand-alone Plain Dictation Interface: the library now provides a simple interface for recognizing plain dictation without fancy active grammar features.
  • NOTE: the default model directory is now kaldi_model.
  • Various bug fixes & optimizations
