style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>Yes AudioServer is the
Galaxy server for ASR. It is however a little more than just a wrapper since it
runs as an interface to audio inputs and can stream the audio to several engines
in parallel (hence the SPHINX_MALE and SPHINX_FEMALE processes). AudioServer
then collects the hypotheses and sends them to the hub (all the hypotheses are
then parsed and Helios picks one for RavenClaw).</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span lang=EN-US
style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>The code for AudioServer
is in Agents/MultiDecoder/Audio_Server</span></font></p>

question, yes you can use TTY-server as a template for your ASR agent. Don’t

give you real ones).</span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>Hi, <br>
we are now starting to add sphinx ASR to our calendar system.<br>
<br>
We had some general questions about it.<br>
<br>
The roomline version is set to work with sphinx 2, and there are 3 servers that
are starting for it.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
{<br>
title SPHINX_AUDIO<br>
dir .<br>
path ..\..\Bin\x86-nt\Audio_Server.exe -engine_list
sphinx_engines.txt<br>
server_name sphinx<br>
}<br>
<br>
{<br>
title SPHINX_MALE<br>
dir ..\..\Resources\DecoderConfig\<br>
path ..\..\Bin\x86-nt\Sphinx_Engine -name male -argfn
male-8khz.arg -port 9990<br>
server_name sphinx_male<br>
}<br>
<br>
{<br>
title SPHINX_FEMALE<br>
dir ..\..\Resources\DecoderConfig\<br>
path ..\..\Bin\x86-nt\Sphinx_Engine -name female -argfn
female-8khz.arg -port 9991<br>
server_name sphinx_female<br>
}<br>
<br>
<br>
Is Audio_Server.exe the Galaxy wrapper? Where is the code for it?<br>
<br>
We plan to use sphinx 4, so we may want to write a java wrapper for it. If I
understand correctly, we could just use the TTY wrapper that we have and
replace the calls to output and input text with calls to sphinx. Is this
correct?<br>
<br>
thank you.<br>
<br>
Svetlana</span></font></p>
