LONDON, Nov. 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — Intelligent Voice®, the compliance and speech technology experts, has announced the release of their new JumpTo™ speech to text appliance, based on the new NVIDIA® Tesla® K80 GPU accelerators. Working with Boston Limited's High Performance Computing, Intelligent Voice®, has created a series of 1, 2 and 4u servers to meet the most demanding speech to text applications.

"We can already achieve up to 200x real time speech to text using the Tesla K40 GPU accelerators running at full capacity," says Nigel Cannings CTO. "With the new K80 GPU accelerators we can almost double that. To put it in perspective, Martin Luther King's 'I Have a Dream' speech runs to 15 minutes: that is the equivalent of turning it into text in about 2 seconds."
The JumpTo™ system takes audio files, particularly telephone calls, and turns them into text. It then automatically indexes the resulting text using its (patent pending) Complexus technology to create "Bookmarks," key phrases that exist in audio file. These not only serve as a visual snapshot of what is in the audio file, but act as navigation to allow the user to "Jump to" the point in a file where the phrase was said – Several examples can be found at http://www.intelligentvoice.com/?#examples.
"Traditionally, speech to text has been seen as slow, and therefore difficult to use for compliance and monitoring purposes. With efficient capture and processing, we can now process the daily telephone calls of thousands of traders on a single appliance."
"We can also now offer ultra-high speed conversion of archival video and audio material, with the added benefit of the JumpTo™ bookmarks allowing instant access to the key parts of the material."
"This is, we believe, the fastest speech-to-text box commercially available. We have invested a lot of time and research in making speech technology practical, and are constantly striving to improve the speed and efficiency of our systems."
Says Manoj Nayee, Managing Director of Boston Limited, "By utilising Supermicro® optimised SuperServers supporting the new NVIDIA® Tesla® K80 GPUs we have seen a huge gain in the areas of computational chemistry & molecular dynamics, energy exploration, and machine learning. We are proud to be a part of the advances made by Intelligent Voice in speech to text processing using our custom made servers."
