About
FABLANG - The Language and Dialect Factory: a platform for developing dialects and accents with speech technologies.
Project description
Recent technological innovations and the massive deployment of voice technologies have considerably changed users' expectations in terms of new uses, performance and personalization. Apart from the major international languages, the language offer is currently limited.
The FabLang project has the mission of creating a web platform that will allow Acapela Group and its customers to develop new languages, dialects and voices with accents - often poorly funded - that are not yet available.
The use of DNNs (deep neural networks or End2End technologies) requires the availability of a sufficiently large corpus to be able to train DNN algorithms. The aim of the project is to meet these needs with an innovative collaborative platform based on multi-language learning approaches, which benefit from know-how on other languages to facilitate training on the target language.
The user will be able to benefit from other resources present on the platform. This project is funded by the Public Service of Wallonia – Department of Research and Technological Development.
