Hello, After reading the diploma thesis of Giwrgos Ouzounis that was suggested, I have the following questions in order to make a proposal that meets all the requirements and the projects' needs. If I got it right, the thesis refers to the same issue as the gsoc project does, which is mail dictation using techniques as personalized acoustic model training and suggested corrections based on a domain-classification. Of course, there are some differences such as the different language and the deployment in the cloud. So, will the project be an extension of this existing project by enhancing the model, integrating the Greek language to it and deploying it in the cloud? Or the thesis is just a reference material and different techniques can be used now that we have the computing power of the cloud. For example, I found out that Kaldi toolkit can be efficient when much computing power is available and more specifically something like this https://github.com/alumae/kaldi-gstreamer-server.
