Verbmobil

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Verbmobil was a longterm interdisciplinary Language Technology (esp. Machine Translation) research project with the aim to develop a system that can recognize, translate and produce natural utterances and thus "translate spontaneous speech robustly and bidirectionally for German/English and German/Japanese"[1].

Verbmobil research was carried out between 1993 and 2000 and was funded by Germany's Federal Ministry of Research and Technology, the Bundesministerium für Forschung und Technologie with a total of 116m Deutschmarks (roughly 60m Euros), industry partners (such as DaimlerChrysler, Siemens and Philips) contributed an additional 52 million DM (26m Euros).
