This textbook (Computer Security Handbook by Seymour Bosworth et al., Chapter 33) seems to cause countless errors using the Aria Neural voice. (attached txt and pdf were trimmed to respect the copyright of the author)

It messes up the chapter markers, saying "January First, Thirty Three" when it says "33.1.1" (as well as all the other section markers)

802.11 is pronounced "eight hundred and two point one one"

SSIDs is pronounced "sids"

BSSIDs is pronounced "bsids"

2Mb/s (as well as other Mb/s numbers) is pronounced "two em bee slash ess" which should be pronounced 2 Megabits per second.

LAN is pronounced lon instead of lan

VLAN should be pronounced "V-lan" instead of being spelled out or occasionally pronounced "vlan" as in vlog and pan put together.

There are other mistakes in this paper as well, but I don't have time to list them all here. Still, the TTS is in serious need of learning tech vocabulary.

Irish (Gaeilge) tts works if correct IPA syntax is used when sending the request for tts with the IPA option included.

                            Example... 

Ba chuid mhór den togra seo teacht ar ábhar a bheadh chomh maith nó níos fearr ná an fhuinseog agus an t-ábhar a bheith níos inmharthana.

                     translated to IPA..

"bˠɑː xɪdʲ woːˈr dʲəɴʲ tʲɔɡˈrə ʃoː tʃæxt eˈr ɑːwəˈr ɑː vʲəh xɔv mˠɑːh ɴˠoː ɴʲiːsˠ fʲæˈrr ɴˠɑː en ɪɴʲʃoːɡ əɡʊsˠ en tʲɑːwəˈr ɑː vʲeɪh ɴʲiːsˠ ɪɴʲwəˈrhɑːɴˠɑː"

The IPA (irish) text can be read and spoken accurately by Neural EN-GB or EN-US voice.

I have attached a file that converts Irish sentences into IPA text. Suggest that this conversion from Irish text to IPA text should be available at Microsoft server side so that tts for irish (Gaeilge) would be available for everyone. Please see attached example of irish Gaeilge tts MP3 using this method.

The script attached converts irish to IPA has room for improvement but mostly gives good enough output for intelligible speech.

Hello,

I am doing speech recognition and am using Android SDK. I plan to move to containers in future. Stopping on silence is default as per documentation. How do i define the following the max audio time recognition time as below:

If the user is speaking and has spoken more than 15 seconds. The sdk should automatically stop the recognizer on Android end. If the user has spoken less than 15 seconds and was silent in between then it should be based on silence detection. The speech sdk should stop the microphone on android either on silence detection (when spoken < 15 seconds) or on completion of user saying 15 second audio.

In the container back-end how can i specify that the maximum audio length should be for 15 seconds . I could not find any such provision in the container documentation

from https://github.com/Azure-Samples/cognitive-services-speech-sdk/issues/610#event-3282436941

The reason and scenario of this asking is that, some time the output recognized text is too long to render friendly, e.g. mobile app with recognized text limit of 2 lines each max 20-char (or less).

E.g.

Utterance: I will go to bookstore this afternoon to check if any new arrivals. After that Jack will pick up me there to gym for practice. We need to prepare a match in two weeks. Dinner will be taken in gym to save commute overhead. I will arrive home around 8:30 in the evening.

Current result from speech sdk:
RECOGNIZED: Text=I will go to a bookstore this afternoon to check if any new arrivals after that Jack will pick up me there to gym for practice.
RECOGNIZED: Text=We need to prepare a match in two weeks.
RECOGNIZED: Text=Dinner will be taken in gym to save commute overhead. I will arrive home around 8:30 in the evening.

Expect result: There shall be a control of segmentation length level (or even better, value) like short, middle or long. E.g. for middle segmentation length, below is expectation:
RECOGNIZED: Text=I will go to a bookstore this afternoon to check if any new arrivals.
RECOGNIZED: Text = After that Jack will pick up me there to gym for practice.
RECOGNIZED: Text=We need to prepare a match in two weeks.
RECOGNIZED: Text=Dinner will be taken in gym to save commute overhead.
RECOGNIZED: Text=I will arrive home around 8:30 in the evening.

Thank you.
