Java Speech Grammar Format

`Contents` | `Previous` | `Next`

> # Preface

> This document is the technical specification for the Java Speech Grammar Format (JSGF). The Java Speech Grammar Format is a platform-independent, vendor- independent textual representation of grammars for use in speech recognition. JSGF adopts the style and conventions of the Java programming language in addition to use of traditional grammar notations.

> ## Technical Scope

> This specification does not address programmatic issues. Programming issues, including those listed below, are covered in the documentation for the Java Speech API (JSAPI).

> - Mechanisms for loading, creating and deleting of grammars in a speech recognizer, activation of grammars for recognition, and other grammar management functionality.
> - Conventions for loading grammars: for example, via URLs on a web site.
> - Mechanisms for receiving results of recognition for a grammar and processing of those results.
> - Error handling for syntactically incorrect grammar definitions.
> - Vocabulary management including handling of token pronunciations.

> ## Web Resources
