Why are we there?
We are active in research projects on automated translation for broadcasting, and language technologies in a broader sense. Jointly with the BBC, we will be leading the workshop on automated translation in broadcasting production in the third session, i.e., general barriers for adoption and valorisation of R&D results. We will be discussing objectives and results from current and previous research projects including CoSyne, MULTISENSOR and EUMSSI, and barriers and opportunities for implementation of language technologies in broadcasting environments.
The workshop is jointly led by Deutsche Welle and the BBC. Peggy van der Kreeft will be presenting on behalf of Deutsche Welle Innovation; Susanne Weber, Language Technology Lead at the BBC News Labs will be speaking for the BBC.
