Abstract
This article outlines some of the characteristics of speech technology that distinguish it from traditional interaction techniques. A number of human factors issues relating to speech will be discussed in the context of a proposed research agenda for speech-based interfaces.

Recommendations
Lithuanian Speech Corpus Liepa for Development of Human-Computer Interfaces Working in Voice Recognition and Synthesis Mode
The problem of speech corpus for design of human-computer interfaces working in voice recognition and synthesis mode is investigated. Specific requirements of speech corpus for speech recognizers and synthesizers were accented. It has been discussed that ...
Silent speech interfaces
The possibility of speech processing in the absence of an intelligible acoustic signal has given rise to the idea of a 'silent speech' interface, to be used as an aid for the speech-handicapped, or as part of a communications system operating in silence-...
Speech interfaces based upon surface electromyography
This paper discusses the use of surface electromyography (EMG) to recognize and synthesize speech. The acoustic speech signal can be significantly corrupted by high noise in the environment or impeded by garments or masks. Such situations occur, for ...
