Phoneme Guesser

Utility to retrieve phonemes from text

This was developed for wake word detection automation using pocketsphinx,
phonemes are retrieved from slightly processed .dict files in models
from sourceforge

for en and es, out of vocab words will use an heuristic approach, for
other languages out of vocab words will return closest match from known
words

help wanted to implement heuristics for other languages

see supported languages in this folder

Install

pip install phoneme_guesser

Usage

from phoneme_guesser import get_phonemes

# if words are know, it is a simple dictionary lookup
en = "ok google"
print(get_phonemes(en, "en"))
# OW K EY . G UW G AH L

en = "hey andromeda"
print(get_phonemes(en, "en"))
# HH EY . AE N D R AA M AH D AH

pt = "ó ambrósio"
print(get_phonemes(pt, "pt-br"))
# O . a~ b r O z i u


# for en and es, out of vocab words will use an heuristic approach

print(get_phonemes(wakeword, "en-us"))
# HH EH Y . M Y K R OW F T

print(get_phonemes(wakeword, "es-es"))
# e i . m y k r o f t


# when heuristics are not implemented
# out of vocab words will return closest match from known words

fr = "Bonjour firefox"  # notice firefox failure
print(get_phonemes(fr, "fr"))
# bb on jj ou rr . ff yy ai ff
