IRJET- Voice to Code Editor using Speech RecognitionIRJET Journal
This document presents a summary of a research paper on developing a voice-controlled code editor using speech recognition. A team of students and a professor from S.B Jain Institute of Technology, Management and Research created a Java program editor that allows users to write code using voice commands. The editor takes advantage of the natural human ability to speak language and allows coding more accurately and intuitively compared to manual typing. It analyzes the user's speech using acoustic and language modeling with Hidden Markov Models to accurately recognize commands. The proposed voice-controlled code editor is designed to reduce typing errors, improve coding speed, and enable people with disabilities to operate a computer. It will support basic editing tasks and allow switching between voice and manual input.

The document discusses a proposed customized speech recognition system that can recognize any regional language. It does this by using Microsoft SAPI to convert words in regional languages to phonemes and store them in a custom grammar database along with their associated actions. During use, a user's spoken words are converted to phonemes using SAPI and compared to the custom grammar database to identify the associated action to perform. This allows the system to recognize and respond to voice commands in any language by training itself on a user's specific regional language.
