That victory required highly computationally-efficient AI rather than just brute force, something Google thinks could help it move speech recognition offline.

Researchers at the University of Toronto have pioneered a method of developing on-device speech recognition models that achieve state-of-the-art accuracy.

Because the speech recognition system does not require communication with the server, the delay is less compared to conventional speech recognition systems, and it works offline.

More than one in four people currently integrate speech recognition into their daily lives. A new algorithm developed by a University of Copenhagen researcher and his international colleagues ...

Google’s latest speech recognition works entirely offline, eliminating that delay altogether — though of course mangling is still an option.

Google's speech-to-text feature in Gboard is now fully capable of real time speech recognition while offline. Digital assistants and voice-controlled gadgets have come a long way in just a few years.

Google has created an offline speech recognition system that is faster and more accurate than a comparable system connected to the Internet. While research papers are usually very theoretical ...
