Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
Newspapers are the source of news and Information and more over it’s a window to the outside World unfortunately some of us need others help to gain the knowledge. Multilingual Newspaper Reading System is a system which enables such people to get benefit of newspaper reading without depending others. It’s an application which collects, classifies and reads online Newspapers in different languages. The system supports languages like English, Hindi and Marathi. The technologies like speech recognition, speech synthesis and the web are integrated together in the system.
