it Well was well comfortable OK actually think it sort of makes everybody act a little more professional I didn't know that you could whistle OK very soft whistler mostly able Actually Yeah I like much this air on at all telephone telephone and I and mean use Yeah Yeah comfortable phones of uh I mean Yeah kind of thing I don't Right OK got OK know I Wow I I Get amazing very high pitch that way too And you get Yeah dogs to yeah d cock their heads and stuff I mean really Oh how course fun Cuz there is Can more really high project to pretty with well this mean one but No Not OK well Yeah just very very mean sensitive enough you the want high something frequencies really that really really nonintrusive get really animals Fascinating nonintrusive Wow really something that Well I guess my feeling Huh is that this is for collecting a corpus not for an actual application And so OK little bit of intrusion is not OK ridiculous this for sure No I mean So just OK think you But can't talking do in any general research yeah otherwise uh exactly I is agree purpose of the corpus mean just you the think purpose you the Training you too s hard recognition Do systems this without going to Right f should too will collect train both the simultaneously characteristics wanna this do c both And So Right so the the point is that if you if we gonna try too hard to do it without the a get go to do it off the PZM we won't get anything Yeah Yeah forget Yeah Yeah Absolutely align the agree able be to Yeah segment grants Yeah won't be able to do anything Yeah You won't be able to get funding So Right No serious Hang on Yeah hang you on won't be able to show any results Mmm right And mean this th this saying you are also in that situation Well I mean we haven't done the the detail experiment but just from was listening pretty to bad pretty bad Yeah Yeah It takes off whereas quite these lot are very good yeah I I mean mean why really like having one of these almost so why if you if Hmm DragonDictate or or ViaVoice or Yeah of yeah those yeah others to do dictation you need to use these Hmm just no Somebody around will it design a comfortable close talking mike I mean there are too many applications to for them not to not do that Well and as I said I mean find not this look one this but I find this one is no problem at all The Yeah only thing is Yeah a little y bit of fine audio a a little bit of audio degradation in one Yeah ear yeah Right little bit of peripheral vision but other than Yeah that Hmm not bad at all Those I other could hand are very uncomfortable those are Yeah pretty those So really Can can't we buy an expander actually that finding just this quite right comfortable now It surviving depends yeah Yeah got think I it have right you know I think just would about to pass out why U i guys must gave numbed too areas soon I think So just I get guess to it after five maybe minutes problem Yeah got the version Yeah No we got a Japanese version you know Sorry so and yeah about this one I mean this Uh thing the wearing wired sideway that that funny can I li I kind of like this So it actually gets most of its strength from from you know the fact this stuck in your Oh this would ear Mmm drive me crazy And Oh absolutely D and does originally speaker picky it about have this speaker Mmm it does When I Uh bought those things I originally got this version cuz Plantronics makes uh you know an one And I really liked it but other people didn't So it just depends I guess you know been using Walkman headphones for you know a long time Yeah Mmm used to that weird sensation having something stuck in my ear But if uh painful used If speech can't recognition for about four years using one of these so used to this You do I don't use Y anymore Uh my hands got better so I stopped using it OK But uh So for about four years I used DragonDictate and NaturallySpeaking OK So you to could all actually work produce Oh like code a or Yeah Yeah It was really a pain Code Right Yeah but I didn't have Wow choice I mean I an interesting Uh type language model So So Huh market is a captive market Yeah Right Mmm yeah In fact when I first came back to grad school that was a project I wanted to work on voice environments for programmers but we couldn't get any funding for it and my hands got better So Hmm up working on this project instead Huh Good Anyway So yeah I so don't are know you guys doing Yeah your project Well basically the the the original project looks a lot like you know the the p your project I mean basically we set up with this uh idea of the the the meeting the the mediated spaces idea in general and then incr incarnated in this room that will be mediated somehow by you know a computer to access information to help along the meeting and will be like two kind of eh f main functions One is the interaction with the computer which as you said you know is your interaction with the PDA in your case where you kind of query it to ask for information et cetera At the same time our process is somehow you know getting all this information doing some sort of you know cross eh channel you know Mmm cancellation and transcribing the individual streams not necessarily in real time And the idea is y you can eventually after the meeting query you know previous meetings Right and and there is all this work on transcription similar probably to what we do in Switchboard but with better bandwidth you know but worse you know environmental acoustics conditions Yeah An and then you know there is all all these issues about processing all this Mmm information you know transcription but then using you know prosody information to better you know segment endpoint Eh also using topic segmentation to help better classification of information or extraction of information I mean we didn't dare to say it will be beginning just to in feel PDA heart you beat throw in the middle of a Yeah meeting Yeah This is this is That that was daring PDA one is very very ambitious Yeah depending on not only that Uh not only does it depend on IRAM Hmm taping out Yeah working as Yeah specified it also depends on writing vectorized speech recognition algorithms which is Yeah Yeah So
