Overview:
Recently, with strong support from the government under China’s ‘National Development Policy’ and the growing market demands from industry verticals, the Chinese voice recognition ecosystem is developing rapidly. Major Chinese technology giants including IFLYTEK, Baidu, Alibaba and Tencent have joined the game, deploying substantial financial and R&D resources to develop the technology and expand the ecosystem through partnerships. The value of the voice recognition market in China is expected to exceed CNY 25 billion (~USD 4 billion) in 2020. From a technological perspective, we will focus on four critical blocks of technology: voice recognition, voiceprint, semantic understanding (natural language understanding) and voice synthesis.
