recognizeOnce

Starts intent recognition, and returns after a single utterance is recognized. The end of a single utterance is determined by listening for silence at the end or until a maximum of 15 seconds of audio is processed. The task returns the recognition text as result.

Note: Since recognizeOnce() returns only a single utterance, it is suitable only for single shot recognition like command or query. For long-running multi-utterance recognition, use startContinuousRecognitionAsync() instead.

- (SPXIntentRecognitionResult * _Nonnull)recognizeOnce

Returns

the result of intent recognition.

recognizeOnce:

Starts intent recognition, and returns after a single utterance is recognized. The end of a single utterance is determined by listening for silence at the end or until a maximum of 15 seconds of audio is processed. The task returns the recognition text as result.

Note: Since recognizeOnce() returns only a single utterance, it is suitable only for single shot recognition like command or query. For long-running multi-utterance recognition, use startContinuousRecognitionAsync() instead.

Added in version 1.6.0.

- (SPXIntentRecognitionResult * _Nullable)recognizeOnce:(NSError * _Nullable * _Nullable)outError

Parameters

  • outError - error information.

Returns

the result of intent recognition.

recognizeOnceAsync:

Starts speech recognition, and returns after a single utterance is recognized. The end of a single utterance is determined by listening for silence at the end or until a maximum of 15 seconds of audio is processed. The task returns the recognition text as result.

Note: Since recognizeOnceAsync() returns only a single utterance, it is suitable only for single shot recognition like command or query. For long-running multi-utterance recognition, use startContinuousRecognitionAsync() instead.

- (void)recognizeOnceAsync:(void (^ _Nonnull)(SPXIntentRecognitionResult * _Nonnull))resultReceivedHandler

Parameters

  • resultReceivedHandler - the block function to be called when the first utterance has been recognized.

recognizeOnceAsync:error:

Starts speech recognition, and returns after a single utterance is recognized. The end of a single utterance is determined by listening for silence at the end or until a maximum of 15 seconds of audio is processed. The task returns the recognition text as result. Note: Since recognizeOnceAsync() returns only a single utterance, it is suitable only for single shot recognition like command or query. For long-running multi-utterance recognition, use startContinuousRecognitionAsync() instead.

Added in version 1.6.0.

- (BOOL)recognizeOnceAsync:(void (^ _Nonnull)(SPXIntentRecognitionResult * _Nonnull))resultReceivedHandler
    error:(NSError * _Nullable * _Nullable)outError

Parameters

  • resultReceivedHandler - the block function to be called when the first utterance has been recognized.
  • outError - error information.

startContinuousRecognition

Starts speech recognition on a continuous audio stream, until stopContinuousRecognition() is called. User must subscribe to events to receive recognition results.

- (void)startContinuousRecognition

startContinuousRecognition:

Starts speech recognition on a continuous audio stream, until stopContinuousRecognition() is called. User must subscribe to events to receive recognition results.

Added in version 1.6.0.

- (BOOL)startContinuousRecognition:(NSError * _Nullable * _Nullable)outError

Parameters

  • outError - error information.

stopContinuousRecognition

Stops continuous intent recognition.

stopContinuousRecognition:

Stops continuous intent recognition.

Added in version 1.6.0.

- (BOOL)stopContinuousRecognition:(NSError * _Nullable * _Nullable)outError

Parameters

  • outError - error information.

addRecognizedEventHandler:

Subscribes to the Recognized event which indicates that a final result has been recognized.

- (void)addRecognizedEventHandler:(SPXIntentRecognitionEventHandler _Nonnull)eventHandler

addRecognizingEventHandler:

Subscribes to the Recognizing event which indicates an that intermediate result has been recognized.

- (void)addRecognizingEventHandler:(SPXIntentRecognitionEventHandler _Nonnull)eventHandler

addCanceledEventHandler:

Subscribes to the Canceled event which indicates that an error occurred during recognition.

- (void)addCanceledEventHandler:(SPXIntentRecognitionCanceledEventHandler _Nonnull)eventHandler

Properties

authorizationToken

@property (readwrite, copy, nonatomic) NSString * _Nullable authorizationToken;

The authorization token used to communicate with the intent recognition service. Note: The caller needs to ensure that the authorization token is valid. Before the authorization token expires, the caller needs to refresh it by calling this setter with a new valid token. Otherwise, the recognizer will encounter errors during recognition.
