An Analysis of Speech Recognition Technology in Present Scenario

Abstract
Speech is the primary form of communication used by humans. Along with the linguistic content of speech, the way a word is said is equally important. The tone of the speech contains cues to the emotional state of the person speaking, and we humans naturally recognize these emotions. Speech recognition includes many areas of neuroscience, psychology, linguistics, computer science and signal processing. This technology enables the computer to transform the speech signal into text or commands through the process of recognition and interpretation. Amid the Covid-19 pandemic, speech and voice recognition technology offered multiple applications in different domains. This paper gives the crucial insights of automatic speech recognition with major applications, forecast analysis of global market trends and explored the challenges faced by the automatic speech recognition system. The paper also covers how the speech recognition technology is helpful during current covid-19 pandemic situation. Keywords - Speech Recognition; Voice Recognition; Market Trends.
