Testimonials
We're already seeing the #Voicebook used to train the next-generation of voice computing experts.
"I like the fact that there's a lot of code samples right after new concepts in the book are introduced. With this structure, I was able to quickly featurize and build machine learning models for voice datasets. The book is also filled with rich tables and visualizations; it's hard to find information like this in one place."
"I've been looking for a textbook for voice computing for several years now. In academic research I have struggled at times putting together material to efficiently orient new undergraduates, graduates, post-docs, and even other faculty to the field. A book like this is valuable to anyone doing work related to voice computing."
"Collecting voice has many layers and challenges, Jim has successfully navigated the 'do's and dont's' into an easy guide for starters and seasoned voice collectors. I highly recommend this book if you need to collect great quality of voice, but need those voice files to produce great data at all levels."
"This book provides an extraordinarily thorough overview of the entire field of speech technologies. Jim's practical ingenuity shines as he guides us through all the technical components and design choices involved in building a voice assistant. Use it to get your hands dirty in this exciting field!"
