What kind of work needs to be done to make OpenEars recognize words spoken in non-American dialect? As far as I know, PocketSphinx is a general purpose speech recognition engine and could be used to perform speech recognition in multiple languages. Do I need to have recordings of Irish people pronouncing words of interest and perform model training to generate models that correspond specifically to Irish dialect of English? What are the specifics of doing this?
