I FINALLY got voice recognition to work in linux for free with almost no trouble!!
First get the binary or source depending on what you need ( I had to cross-compile the source):
http://julius.sourceforge.jp/en_index.php?q=index-en.html#download_juliusThen download the appropriate Quick Start files:
http://www.voxforge.org/home/downloads#QuickStart%20AnchorYou can possibly just use the quick start download and not need the source, but the binary is not the latest version, and it didn't work for me as I need to cross-compile.
In my case I needed to cross-compile the source and then install it on my target machine. From there I just uncompressed the quick start files inside of the julius/bin folder I had already installed.
From there I just ran ./julius -input mic -C julian.jconf
It will understand any of the words in the file julius/bin/grammer/sample.dict
I am going to try to use some of the files from the misterhouse pocketsphinx files and see what I can do with this.
