POST /speech/asrlongrunning

Performs asynchronous speech recognition

This resource receives a uri containing the audio resource, download it and transcribes the audio using state-of-the-art deep neural networks. It performs asynchronous speech recognition and the result will be availble using transcription endpoint. This endpoint is designed for transcription of long audio files upto 240 minute.

Using config object you can can specify audio configs such as audioEncoding and sampleRateHertz. We will support different languages so you can choose the languageCode. Using asrModel and languageModel in config you can use customized models. Refer to WebSocket API for speech recognition with streams. Refer to ASR API for fast recognition for short audio files.

Body Required

post uri and configs to this service for asr.

config

object Required

Provides information to the recognizer that specifies how to process the request.

Show config attributes object

audioEncoding string Required

Encoding of audio data sent in all RecognitionAudio messages. In case of voice synthesize, this is the format of the requested audio byte stream. This field is required for all audio formats.

Values are LINEAR16, FLAC, or MP3. Default value is LINEAR16.
sampleRateHertz integer Required

Sample rate in Hertz of the audio data sent in all RecognitionAudio messages. Valid values are 8000-48000. 16000 is optimal. For best results, set the sampling rate of the audio source to 16000 Hz. If that is not possible, use the native sample rate of the audio source (instead of re-sampling). This field is required for all audio formats. In Text to Speech endpoint is the synthesis sample rate (in hertz) for audio and Optional. If this is different from the voice's natural sample rate, then the synthesizer will honor this request by converting to the desired sample rate (which might result in worse audio quality), unless the specified sample rate is not supported for the encoding chosen.

Default value is 16000.
languageCode string Required

The language of the supplied audio as a language tag. Example en for english language. See Language Support for a list of the currently supported language codes.

Values are fa or en.
maxAlternatives integer

Optional Maximum number of recognition hypotheses to be returned. Specifically, the maximum number of SpeechRecognitionAlternative messages within each SpeechRecognitionResult. The server may return fewer than maxAlternatives. Valid values are 1-5. A value of 0 or 1 will return a maximum of one. If omitted, will return a maximum of one.

Minimum value is 0, maximum value is 5. Default value is 1.
profanityFilter boolean

Optional If set to true, the server will attempt to filter out profanities, replacing all but the initial character in each filtered word with asterisks, e.g. "s***". If set to false or omitted, profanities will not be filtered out.

Default value is true.

asrModel

string

Optional Which model to select for the given request. Select the model best suited to your domain to get best results. If a model is not explicitly specified, then we auto-select a model based on the parameters in the RecognitionConfig.

Model	Description
default	Best for audio that is not one of the specific audio models. For example, long-form audio. Ideally the audio is high-fidelity, recorded at a 16khz or greater sampling rate.
video	Best for audio that originated from from video or includes multiple speakers. Ideally the audio is recorded at a 16khz or greater sampling rate.
command_and_search	Best for short queries such as voice commands or voice search. To be released.
phone_call	Best for audio that originated from a phone call (typically recorded at an 8khz sampling rate). To be released.

Values are default, video, command_and_search, or phone_call. Default value is default.

languageModel

string

This is the language model id of a customized trained language model. You can train your own language models and then use them to recognize speech. Refer to languagemodel/train for more info.

There are some pretrained language models which you can use.

Model	Description
general	Best for audio content that is not one of the specific language models. This is the default language model and if you are not sure which one to use, simply use 'general'.
numbers	Best for audio content that contains only spoken numbers. For examble this language model can be used for speech enabled number input fileds.
yesno	Best for audio content that contains yes or no. For examble this language model can be used to receive confirmation from user.
country	Best for audio content that contains only spoken country. For examble this language model can be used for speech enabled input fileds.
city	Best for audio content that contains only spoken city. For examble this language model

can be used for speech enabled input fileds. career | Best for audio content that contains only spoken career names. For examble this language model can be used for speech enabled input fileds.

audio object Required

Contains audio source URI with the encoding specified in the RecognitionConfig.

For asrlongrunning endpoint only uri is accepted.

Property Description

uri URI that points to a file that contains audio data bytes as specified in RecognitionConfig. The file must not be compressed (for example, gzip).

- transcriptionId string(uuid)
  
  A UUID string specifying a unique pair of audio and recognitionResult. It can be used to retrieve this recognitionResult using transcription endpoint. asrLongRunning recognitionResult will only be available using transcription endpoint and this transcriptionId.
- duration number(double)
  
  File duration in seconds.
- inferenceTime number(double)
  
  Total inference time in seconds.
- status string
  
  Status of the recognition process. USE THE RECOGNITION RESULT ONLY WHEN STATUS IS DONE.
  
  Values are queued, processing, done, or partial. Default value is queued.
- results array[object]
  
  Sequential list of transcription results corresponding to sequential portions of audio. May contain one or more recognition hypotheses (up to the maximum specified in maxAlternatives). These alternatives are ordered in terms of accuracy, with the top (first) alternative being the most probable, as ranked by the recognizer.

  A UTF8-Encoded string. Transcript text representing the words that the user spoke.
  
  confidence number(double)
