While we have had good success with Bluemix Java SDK in the general case, we've bumped into problems while trying to recognize occasional non-English words (e.g., foreign last names). Our hope was that one could specify the keyword list using SPR phonetic notation (which works great for text2speech), but that does not seem to be supported for speech2text. Any suggestions/workarounds?
SpeechToText service = new SpeechToText();
service.setUsernameAndPassword("USERNAME", "PASSWORD");
File audio = new File("C:\\Users\\AudioFiles\\euler.wav");
RecognizeOptions options = new RecognizeOptions().Builder()
.contentType(HttpMediaType.AUDIO_WAV)
.continuous(true)
.inactivityTimeout(500)
.keywords({"Agarwal", "Euler", "Qin"})
.keywordsThreshold(0.5)
.build();
SpeechResults transcript = service.recognize(audio, options);
System.out.println(transcript);
The objective is to be able say "My name is John Euler." and for the transcript not to return something like "My name is John Oyler." (which is what it does currently).
Thx.
Hmm, the three words that you pass are actually in the vocabulary, but maybe they are not found because they have very little weight in the language model. Have you tried relaxing the threshold? You can also try to use the Watson STT customization service to boost probabilities of names if the task is name focused

I am currently trying to implement file exports in background so that the user can do some actions while the file is downloading.
I used the apache isis CommandExexuteIn:Background action attribute. However, I got an error
"Not an (encodable) value", this is an error thrown by the ScalarValueRenderer class.
This is how my method looks like:
#Action(semantics = SemanticsOf.SAFE,
command = CommandReification.ENABLED)
commandExecuteIn = CommandExecuteIn.BACKGROUND)
public Blob exportViewAsPdf() {
final Contact contact = this;
final String filename = this.businessName + " Contact Details";
final Map<String, Object> parameters = new HashMap<>();
parameters.put("contact", contact);
final String template = templateLoader.buildFromTemplate(Contact.class, "ContactViewTemplate", parameters);
return pdfExporter.exportAsPdf(filename, template);
}
I think the error has something to do with the command not actually invoking the action but returns the persisted background command.
This implementation actually worked on the method where there is no return type. Did I miss something? Or is there a way to implement background command and get the expected results?
interesting use case, but it's not one I anticipated when that part of the framework was implemented, so I'm not surprised it doesn't work. Obviously the error message you are getting here is pretty obscure, so I've raised a
JIRA ticket to see if we could at least improve that.
I'm interested to know in what user experience you think the framework should provide here?
In the Estatio application that we work on (that has driven out many of the features added to the framework over the last few years) we have a somewhat similar requirement to obtain PDFs from a reporting server (which takes 5 to 10 seconds) and then download them. This is for all the tenants in a shopping centre, so there could be 5 to 50 of these to generate in a single go. The design we went with was to move the rendering into a background command (similar to the templateLoader.buildFromTemplate(...) and pdfExporter.exportAsPdf(...) method calls in your code fragment, and to capture the output as a Document, via the document module. We then use the pdfbox addon to stitch all the document PDFs together as a single downloadable PDF for printing.
Hopefully that gives you some ideas of a different way to support your use case
Thx

I think this question was asked earlier but removed for reasons unknown. I am very new to DBPedia and have little knowledge about writing quesries. The problem I am trying to resolve is a Natural Language Problem. I am able to extract entities from a given sentence. I am able to classify some of them as Name, Organization and Person but unable to classify the rest correctly. So I wanted to add a lookup option where I look them up in a database like DPpedia for a classification. Just yesterday a kind soul suggested I look at DBPedia Spotlight. I went throught heir documentation. The best way to integrate it in my java code is :
import org.dbpedia.spotlight.annotate.DefaultParagraphAnnotator
import org.dbpedia.spotlight.disambiguate.{TwoStepDisambiguator, ParagraphDisambiguatorJ}
import org.dbpedia.spotlight.model.SpotlightConfiguration
import org.dbpedia.spotlight.model.SpotlightFactory
val text = new String("Brazilian oil giant Petrobras and U.S. oilfield service company Halliburton have signed a technological cooperation agreement, Petrobras announced Monday. The two companies agreed on three projects: studies on contamination of fluids in oil wells, laboratory simulation of well production, and research on solidification of salt and carbon dioxide formations, said Petrobras. Twelve other projects are still under negotiation.")
val configuration = new SpotlightConfiguration("conf/server.properties")
val factory = new SpotlightFactory(configuration)
val disambiguator = new ParagraphDisambiguatorJ(new TwoStepDisambiguator(factory.candidateSearcher, factory.contextSearcher))
val spotter = factory.spotter()
val annotator = new DefaultParagraphAnnotator(spotter, disambiguator);
println(annotator.annotate(text))
However, I do not want to annotate paragraphs. Just run the annotation on words I extract from a sentence that could be possible entities e.g. in the sentence "Yahoo ceo Marissa Mayers said in a press conference yesterday...." I am able to extract Yahoo and Marissa Mayers. Now I want to use DBPedia to assign a classification to them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
How do you create/set Record Selection Formula programatically on crystal reports using java? I tried searching on the internet but the only option is through IFilter which requires a Crystal Report Server. My program only uses the JRC library. Also this is a java desktop application using swing.
It may be a bit late, but maybe this is useful for someone:
reportClientDoc.getDataDefController().getRecordFilterController().setFormulaText("your record selection formula here");
I was doing some research about this and noticed that there are 3 methods with which you can do this:
Using the IFilter interface as shown in this example provided by SAP
// Set the filter string to be used as the Record Filter
String freeEditingFilter = "{Customer.Country} = 'Canada'";
// Retrieve the record filter for the Data Definition Controller
IFilter iFilter = clientDoc.getDataDefController().getDataDefinition().getRecordFilter();
// Set the filter to free editing text filter string
iFilter.setFreeEditingText(freeEditingFilter);
// Modify the filter through the Record Filter Controller to the report
clientDoc.getDataDefController().getRecordFilterController().modify(iFilter);
I am using the JRC only without a Crystal Report Server and the above example worked for me.
As Francisco said in his answer, using the setFormulaText method:
clientDoc.getDataDefController().getRecordFilterController().setFormulaText("{Customer.Country} = 'Canada'");
Using parameters. Parameters can be passed to the report using code (you can use the addDiscreteParameterValue function in the helper class) or else they can be filled in by the user during runtime. I chose not to opt for this option because they can not be set to optional
If you want to create a crystal report of your program, you need another jar file of software.
You can create your program in NetBeans IDE and link your IDE with IReport software which is used in NetBeans for creating Reporting in java.
You get many example from internet about this.
I would like to create a simple XMPP client in java that shares his location (XEP-0080) with other clients.
I already know I can use the smack library for XMPP and that it supports PEP, which is needed for XEP-0080.
Does anyone have an example how to implement this or any pointers, i don't find anything using google.
thanks in advance.
Kristof's right, the doc's are sparse - but they are getting better. There is a good, albeit hard to find, set of docs on extensions though. The PubSub one is at http://www.igniterealtime.org/fisheye/browse/~raw,r=11613/svn-org/smack/trunk/documentation/extensions/pubsub.html.
After going the from scratch custom IQ Provider route with an extension I found it was easier to do it using the managers as much as possible. The developers that wrote the managers have abstracted away a lot of the pain points.
Example (modified-for-geoloc version of one rcollier wrote on the Smack forum):
ConfigureForm form = new ConfigureForm(FormType.submit);
form.setPersistentItems(false);
form.setDeliverPayloads(true);
form.setAccessModel(AccessModel.open);
PubSubManager manager
= new PubSubManager(connection, "pubsub.communitivity.com");
Node myNode = manager.createNode("http://jabber.org/protocol/geoloc", form);
StringBuilder body = new StringBuilder(); //ws for readability
body.append("<geoloc xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/geoloc' xml:lang='en'>");
body.append(" <country>Italy</country>");
body.append(" <lat>45.44</lat>");
body.append(" <locality>Venice</locality>");
body.append(" <lon>12.33</lon>");
body.append(" <accuracy>20</accuracy>");
body.append("</geoloc>");
SimplePayload payload = new SimplePayload(
"geoloc",
"http://jabber.org/protocol/geoloc",
body.toString());
String itemId = "zz234";
Item<SimplePayload> item = new Item<SimplePayload>(itemId, payload);
// Required to recieve the events being published
myNode.addItemEventListener(myEventHandler);
// Publish item
myNode.publish(item);
Or at least that's the hard way :). Just remembered there's a PEPManager now...
PEPProvider pepProvider = new PEPProvider();
pepProvider.registerPEPParserExtension(
"http://jabber.org/protocol/tune", new TuneProvider());
ProviderManager.getInstance().addExtensionProvider(
"event",
"http://jabber.org/protocol/pubsub#event", pepProvider);
Tune tune = new Tune("jeff", "1", "CD", "My Title", "My Track");
pepManager.publish(tune);
You'd need to write the GeoLocProvider and GeoLoc classes.
I covered a pure PEP based approach as an alternative method in detail for Android here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/26719158/406920.
This will be very close to what you'd need to do with regular Smack.
Take a look at the existing code for implementations of other extensions. This will be your best example of how to develop with the current library. Unfortunately, there is no developers guide that I know of, so I just poked around to understand some of the basics myself until I felt comfortable with the environment. Hint: Use the providers extension facility to add custom providers for the extension specific stanzas.
You can ask questions on the developer forum for Smack, and contribute your code back to the project from here as well. If you produce an implementation of this extension, then you could potentially get commit privileges yourself if you want it.
I have looked in vain for a good example or starting point to write a java based facebook application... I was hoping that someone here would know of one. As well, I hear that facebook will no longer support their java API is this true and if yes does that mean that we should no longer use java to write facebook apps??
There's a community project which is intended to keep the Facebook Java API up to date, using the old official Facebook code as a starting point.
You can find it here along with a Getting Started guide and a few bits of sample code.
Facebook stopped supporting the official Java API on 5 May 2008 according to their developer wiki.
In no way does that mean you shouldn't use Java any more to write FB apps. There are several alternative Java approaches outlined on the wiki.
You might also want to check this project out; however, it only came out a few days ago so YMMV.
I write an example using facebook java api
It use FacebookXmlRestClient in order to make client request and print
all user infos
http://programmaremobile.blogspot.com/2009/01/facebook-java-apieng.html
BatchFB provides a modern Java API that lets you easily optimize your Facebook calls down to a minimum set:
http://code.google.com/p/batchfb/
Here's the example taken from the main page of what you can effectively do in a single FB request:
/** You write your own Jackson user mapping for the pieces you care about */
public class User {
long uid;
#JsonProperty("first_name") String firstName;
String pic_square;
String timezone;
}
Batcher batcher = new FacebookBatcher(accessToken);
Later<User> me = batcher.graph("me", User.class);
Later<User> mark = batcher.graph("markzuckerberg", User.class);
Later<List<User>> myFriends = batcher.query(
"SELECT uid, first_name, pic_square FROM user WHERE uid IN" +
"(SELECT uid2 FROM friend WHERE uid1 = " + myId + ")", User.class);
Later<User> bob = batcher.queryFirst("SELECT timezone FROM user WHERE uid = " + bobsId, User.class);
PagedLater<Post> feed = batcher.paged("me/feed", Post.class);
// No calls to Facebook have been made yet. The following get() will execute the
// whole batch as a single Facebook call.
String timezone = bob.get().timezone;
// You can just get simple values forcing immediate execution of the batch at any time.
User ivan = batcher.graph("ivan", User.class).get();
You might want to try Spring Social. It might be limited in terms of Facebook features, but lets you also connect to Twitter, LinkedIn, TripIt, GitHub, and Gowalla.
The other side of things is that as Facebook adds features some of the old API's might break, so using a simpler pure FB api (that you can update when things don't work) might be a good idea.
This tutorial will literally step you through everything you need to do: http://ocpsoft.org/opensource/creating-a-facebook-app-setup-and-tool-installation/
It comes in 3 parts. The other 2 are linked from there.
