Modular Audio Recognition Framework (MARF) is an open-source research platform and a collection of voice, sound, speech, text and natural language processing (NLP) algorithms written in Java and arranged into a modular and extensible framework that attempts to facilitate addition of new algorithms. MARF may act as a library in applications or be used as a source for learning and extension. A few example applications are provided to show how to use the framework. There is also a detailed manual{{cite web |url=http://marf.sourceforge.net/docs/marf/0.3.0.6/report.pdf |title=MARF, The Modular Audio Recognition Framework, and its Applications: Programmer's Manual|accessdate=2007-08-26 }} and the API reference{{cite web |url=http://marf.sourceforge.net/api-dev/ |title=MARF Developers' API |accessdate=2007-08-10 }} in the javadoc format as the project tends to be well documented. MARF, its applications, and the corresponding source code and documentation are released under the BSD-style license.
