C++ Speech recognition API [closed]

Question

I am seeking for a C++ speech recognition/voice recognition API. I have gone through few, including VOCE and pocketphenix. However this is my requirement

1. Text to speech
2. Speech to text (voice commands - I am planning to convert voice into string and check whether it is a command)
3. Identify my voice (not mandatory)

VOCE api seems not to provide what I am asking for, and pocketphenix seems extremely complex. The API will be used with QT - latest version which works with Visual Studio 2010 compiler.

I have heard there is a API provided by Microsoft, but I am willing to stay away from Microsoft APIs as much as possible.

I am using MS Windows 7 ultimate, so the it is enough if the API works with windows.

The API should be free and better if opensource because I will be using this in my Final Year project at university.

Answer 1

According to the Voce home page, it does text to voice and voice to text. As for using it with C++, when I look at the source code, I can see a C++ header here, and there are some instructions here. I can't advise you specifically on JNI as I have no experience with it.
