Xamarin Offline Multilingual Keyword Recognition

Without directly involving Azure Cognitive Services for every use occurrence, for Xamarin, is there a component for/example of locally implementing "Yes/No" from a specified multilingual speech keyword combination (Sí o no) which result in a Boolean than can be used in multiple forms but not continuous listening needed?

@MarcGeorge-9076 Not clear what you want to achieve. What is the Boolean you want to get? Can you explain it in detail?

@KyleWang-MSFT Currently supplementing all pages with translated Cognitive Services' "text to speech" to enable "not having to look at the device screen", I would like to ask "Y/N" questions in the selected language and have the listener reply in that language without having to use Cognitive Services' "speech to text" to obtain the Boolean implied by simply saying "Yes" or "No".

After the question, the timespan of the verbal reply will be set to be less than 10 secs., so continuous recognition is not needed.

Over the life of the app on the device, I expect thousands of verbal "answers". I don't want the additional delays or services impacts of millions of app instances. A specific language keyword model could be created during app installation and initialization.

Hi MarcGeorge-9076,

Welcome to our Microsoft Q&A platform!

You can use Xamarin's bindings for iOS's and Android's on-device speech recognizers. iOS and Android both provide related API to achieve it.

And here are the related documents.

For iOS, you can use Speech. As to Android you can refer to the documents: SpeechRecognizer, SpeechRecognizer Class, Speech Namespace.

Regards,
Kyle
