[asterisk-users] Please help test the gender detection moduleat 575-613-4392

[Jason Aarons (US)]

After helping out it seems I've been determined a female(wrongly).  It
was disappointing and I'm considering a visit to the Dr Phil Show to
work out my anger....

That's funny. The way I have it phrased, when I called I started talking
to it as well! I have some code for short list voice recognition and
thought about detecting yes and no in there, but I ran out of time...and
the prompts were already recorded.

Thank you everyone for helping test the module. There have been 200+
calls from users on the list and they are still coming in. We're getting
about 65%-70% success rate. My target is 80%-85% in random sampling and
90%-95% in controlled settings.

Update: I'm adjusting the detection ratios tomorrow, so that should
improve general detection results based on the received data. I'm
implementing filters to remove the background noise. I'd guess that 5%
of those testing are trying to fool the system for fun, in one way or
another. When the user is unaware of sampling, the results are slightly
higher. My greeting suggests a less masculine phrase, but with a male
voice. I suspect this throws off both genders' recordings. I probably
should have had testers say their own names, since testers rarely divert
on that.

serious laugh, system kept asking me if I was ready....., ended up
finding myself talking to the IVR .....
