In this week\'s episode, guest Andre Natal from Mozilla joins our host, Kyle Polich, to discuss a couple exciting new developments in open source speech recognition systems, which include\\xa0Project Common Voice.
In June 2017, Mozilla launched a new open source project, Common Voice, a novel complementary project to the\\xa0TensorFlow-based DeepSpeech\\xa0implementation. DeepSpeech is a deep learning-based voice recognition system that was designed by Baidu, which they describe in greater detail in their\\xa0research paper. DeepSpeech is a speech-to-text engine, and Mozilla hopes that, in the future, they can use Common Voice data to train their DeepSpeech engine.
