pynltools 0.5.0

py-nltools----------A collection of abstraction layers and support functions that form the naturallanguage processing foundation of the Zamia AI project:* `phonetics`: translation functions between various phonetic alphabets (IPA, X-SAMPA, X-ARPABET, ...)* `tts`: abstraction layer towards using eSpeak NG, MaryTTS, SVOX Pico TTS or a remote TTS server and sequitur g2p* `asr`: abstraction layer towards using kaldi-asr, models can be found here: http://www.zamia-speech.org* `sequiturclient`: g2p using sequitur* `pulseplayer`: audio playback through pulseaudio* `pulserecorder`: audio recording through pulseaudio* `tokenizer`: english, french and german word tokenizers aimed at spoken language applications* `threadpool`: simple thread pool implementation* `vad`: Voice Activity Detection finite state machine based on webrtc VAD* `macro_engine`: Simple macro engine aimed at generating natural language expansionsI plan to add modules as I need them in the Zamia AI projects. Some modules like `phonetics` and `tokenizer`have some overlap with larger projects like NLTK or spaCy - my modules tend to be more hands-on and simple mindedthan these and therefore are in no way meant to replace them. ifndef::imagesdir[:imagesdir: images]ifndef::env-github[][ditaa,"highlevel"].... +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | nltools | | +-----------+ +-----------+ +------------+ +--------------+ | | | tokenizer | | phonetics | | threadpool | | macro_engine | | | +-----------+ +-----------+ +------------+ +--------------+ | | | | +-----------+ +-----------+ +-----------+ +-----------+ +-----------+ | | | tts | | asr | | vad | | g2p | | audio | | | +-----------+ +-----------+ +-----------+ +-----------+ +-----------+ | | | | | | | | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | | | | +--------+---------+ | | | | | | | | | | | v v v v v v v +------+ +--------+ +------+ +-------+ +--------+ +----------+ +------------+ | mary | | eSpeak | | pico | | kaldi | | webrtc | | sequitur | | pulseaudio | +------+ +--------+ +------+ +-------+ +--------+ +----------+ +------------+....endif::env-github[]ifdef::env-github[]image::highlevel.png[Highlevel Diagram]endif::env-github[]Requirements~~~~~~~~~~~~*Note*: probably incomplete.* Python 2.7 * for TTS one or more of: - MaryTTS, py-marytts - espeak-ng, py-espeak-ng - SVOX Pico TTS, py-picotts* for ASR - kaldi-asr 5.4.248, py-kaldi-asr* sequitur* pulseaudio* webrtcLicense~~~~~~~My own code is Apache-2.0 licensed unless otherwise noted in the script's copyrightheaders.Some scripts and files are based on works of others, in those cases it is myintention to keep the original license intact.
