Healthcare, Security and the Army…
…these are the three overarching themes of the speech technology news that I came across this week. There are some obvious and less obvious points of contact here:
- In the Army: for those who watched Air Wolf in the 80s, voice-controlled aircraft systems are being tested on UK Army helicopters.
- Healthcare-military solution of the week: US Army hospital deploys speech enabled self-service telephone application.
- Some pure healthcare: UK study finds outlook on radiological reporting using speech recognition positive. Also, Bayer employs MedScan NLP technology for information extraction of biomedical literature.
- Three security applications of language technology his week: a password reset application employing speaker verification wins award, a Brazilian bank looking to employ SV for financial services applications and a university campus emergency response system using speech synthesis.
