Abstract:
Speech is our most natural form of interaction. Developing speech input modalities for several languages, combining speech recognition and understanding, presents various difficulties. While automatic translators ease the translation of normal text, the adaptation of grammars for several languages is currently performed based on an ad hoc approach. In this paper, we present a novel service that enables a multilingual speech input modality and helps developers in the creation of the grammars for different languages. The service itself uses two additional services for parsing and translation. The use of the service is exemplified in the context of AAL PaeLife project multilingual personal assistant.
