17. Now let’s talk about possible careers using Speech Recognition.

18. Next Slide Before we talk about the careers using speech recognition, I need to explain the chart that you will review on the possible jobs. Each job is rated by a zone. Zones range 1-5 with 1 being the least amount of experience/education and 5 being the most experience/education required. Let’s review.

Medical Transcription Industry News Medical Transcription Industry News Current Articles | Archives | Search 18Article Manager posted on April 18, 2010 06:38A growing number of medical providers send their dictation to medical transcribers via digital voice files (speech recognition technology or SRT). Though speech recognition software has been around for a number of years, it is still a fairly new technology, and the software must be "trained" or programmed to the user's voice and tonal type. Dictation is read into the software and the program continuously "learns" the spoken words and phrases.This can make transcribing simpler or more difficult. Poor speech habits, heavy foreign accents and mumbling can make it more difficult for the software to process and recognize the transcriber's voice, or take longer to learn. It is important in the learning of speech recognition to not vary the way you speak, and to "teach" the software often. The more you speak to it and do the lessons that are programmed within the software, the quicker it will learn your speech type.Try to speak as clearly as you can, pronouncing words consistently; recognition software will not understand tone of voice. Once it learns a particular word, if a non-learned word is stated in the same manner as the learned word, the software will type the learned word rather than the one spoken. This can result in a mish-mash of unintelligible words. Read each sentence as it is typed on the screen to be sure the wrong word is not translated onto the document. If it is, remember to "teach" that word to the software.Thresholds can be set to reject a bad report and return it for standard dictation, but these settings are arbitrary. Each software is not created equal, however. Some are better than others and have a higher rate of learning success.

27. Speech Recognition Software Can Enhance Quality of Lawyer's Life Many attorneys may be familiar with speech recognition software, but few realize the profound impact it can have on their productivity and quality of life. In an eye-opening article we found on the ABA website, litigator Andrew J. Roman walks readers through the extraordinary benefits he has obtained from using Dragon Naturally SpeakingTM software to create and edit documents. As Mr. Roman states, "the impact of using this software in my law practice over the last decade is so profound that it can only be described as a change in lifestyle." Now that sounds like real JD bliss.
