A collection of abstraction layers and support functions that form the natural language processing foundation of the Zamia AI project:

• phonetics: translation functions between various phonetic alphabets (IPA, X-SAMPA, X-ARPABET, …​)

• tts: abstraction layer towards using eSpeak NG, MaryTTS, SVOX Pico TTS or a remote TTS server and sequitur g2p

• asr: abstraction layer towards using kaldi-asr and pocketsphinx, models can be found here: http://goofy.zamia.org/voxforge/

• sequiturclient: g2p using sequitur

• pulseplayer: audio playback through pulseaudio

• pulserecorder: audio recording through pulseaudio

• tokenizer: english, french and german word tokenizers aimed at spoken language applications

• threadpool: simple thread pool implementation

• vad: Voice Activity Detection finite state machine based on webrtc VAD

• macro_engine: Simple macro engine aimed at generating natural language expansions

I plan to add modules as I need them in the Zamia AI projects. Some modules like phonetics and tokenizer have some overlap with larger projects like NLTK or spaCy - my modules tend to be more hands-on and simple minded than these and therefore are in no way meant to replace them.
