Voice Reminder Assistant based on Speech Recognition and Speaker Identification using Kaldi

A user often wants to do some tasks which don’t need a specific time to complete but are important, due to busy routines and possible  memory  loss  problems  user  forgets  to  accomplish  such tasks  or  delay  them  to  manage  later.  The task may  be  about conveying some information to a person when the user meets him, sort things in his wardrobe, or locker, etc. A user can  meet the person  anywhere  or  anytime  so  he  cannot  set  a  reminder  for  a specific  time.  Such tasks can be accomplished if the user has a reminder system, which reminds him about the tasks at runtime. In this   paper,   we   present   a   reminder   system   based   on   speech recognition      &      speaker      identification;      personal      voice- controlled aid for  the  user  to  remind  about  the  tasks  when  some specific keyword/phrase is spoken  by the user  or user reaches a specific location so that the user can accomplish the important time independent tasks without being time-bound. The specified keyword can  be  anything,  person  name,  place  name,  and  any  phrase. The user can speak to the assistant to remind about some task without un- locking his mobile or opening the application for a specific keyword/phrase & location. When the specific keyword/phrase is spoken or user reaches the specific location the assistant also speaks and reminds the user about the task.  Voice reminder assistant supports Text-Independent Speaker Identification unlike other voice assistants already available.
