jalcineIs HUD accessible over D-Bus? I'm working on a speech app that'd forward text as if it were typed into HUD19:00
mhall119gord: ^^19:05
mhall119tedg might know too, if you want to ask him when he's in tomorrow19:05
jalcinemhall119: thanks :)19:19
jalcineI might just pull in the code and just grep any references to d-bus and see where that takes me.19:19
AlanBelljalcine: seen hud-cli and hud-dump-application and hud-list-applications and hud-verify-app-info?21:26
AlanBellplus yes, the menus are very dbus exposed21:27
jalcineI saw hud-cli, but not the others.21:27
AlanBellI don't know what they all do exactly21:27
jalcineAnd if d-bus is available, I'd stick to that.21:27
AlanBellso what are you doing with it?21:27
jalcineOne less dependency to code in.21:27
AlanBellI was thinking of using dbus to get the menu structure then mangling it into a jsgf grammar file to feed to pocket-sphynx21:28
jalcineWell, we've gotten mediocre speech recognition going and right now, we're packaging the latest version of CMU's tools for acoustic model training.21:29
jalcineBecause the version in the repository aren't as proficient as the ones available.21:29
AlanBellcom.canonical.hud is the dbus thing21:29
jalcineYeah, SC's like powered on PocketSphinx, its it's battery.21:29
AlanBellthe dbus hooks for HUD are about submitting queries to it, should be controllable that way21:30
jalcineThat should be it, then.21:31
jalcineI'd begin hacking up another plug-in.21:31
AlanBellyeah, but it doesn't expose the full list of options through that21:31
AlanBellyou would need to poke at com.canonical.AppMenu.Registrar and call GetMenus() there, then go through the menus picking up entries, just like the HUD does21:32
jalcineWell, all I really need to be able to provide input.21:32
jalcine*able to do21:32
AlanBellwell how are you restricting the grammar?21:33
jalcineWe aren't. We're working on building speaker-independent models. HUD's a feature I'd like to connect with it.21:33
AlanBelloh, well should be pretty easy then, but recognition accuracy won't be so hot21:34
AlanBellif you can parse the menu structures and create a jsgf grammar file then pocketsphynx will only listen for useful words and will be more accurate in theory21:35
jalcineIt would, but we'd have to get the user to adapt that content into a specific model.21:36
jalcineI proposed a delicately difficult idea: http://thesii.org/wiki/SpeechControl/Ideologies/AutomaticAcousticModelImprovement21:38
navaHi ,what do you think about this feature for unity ? http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/29302/21:38
jalcineBut I figure with HUD + SpeechControl, AAMI (above) would gradually improve in use.21:38
