I'm planning to use the fine speech recognition package of http://www.speech.cs.cmu.edu/sphinx/ teach it to understand lojban and hook this up to CMUCL to parse things and produce a nice, extensible and robust command language for computers.(Why, perhaps you could call me a geek :-) Now, I'd like to hear your opinion if this is something that already exists in some form or if there would be an easier way without learning lojban and instead do X Other thing is that I saw in some document a note that lojban should be easy to recognize with the speech recognition algorithms. Has this been tested or has the set of phonemes been somehow selected from statistical information to be optimally distributed in the recognition space? If my question makes no sense to you it might be because I'm not actually a specialist in languages nor in speech recognition technology but rather a programmer.
