Meet Ąžuolas and Liepa – two humanoid robots created by VU researchers for the preservation of the Lithuanian language
Lithuanian researchers believe that if we want to prevent the disappearance of the Lithuanian language, it should become a language used not only by us, but also by state-of-the-art technology. Our researchers have already made a significant progress in the field of speech recognition technology, which can help home assistants to start speaking Lithuanian. What’s it all about? Speech recognition is when a computer recognises what we say. This technology should not be confused with other technologies such as voice recognition, where a device recognises and identifies the voice of a particular person, and language identification, which means that a machine identifies what language (English, Lithuanian, etc.) a person is speaking.
