Abstract: An iterative language translation system includes multiple communicatively connected statistical speech translation systems. The system includes an automatic speech recognition component adapted to recognize spoken language in a source language and to create a source language hypothesis. A machine translation component is adapted to translate the source language hypothesis into a target language. The system also includes a second automatic speech recognition component and second machine translation component. The translation results are used to adapt the automatic speech recognition components and the language hypotheses are used to adapt the machine translation components.

Abstract: An example method is provided and includes receiving recorded meeting information, selecting a meeting participant from the recorded meeting information, determining at least one of meeting participant emotion information, meeting participant speaker role information, or meeting participant engagement information based, at least in part, on the meeting information, and determining an interaction map associated with the meeting participant based, at least in part, on at least one of the meeting participant emotion information, the meeting participant speaker role information, or the meeting participant engagement information.

Abstract: An iterative language translation system. The system includes a first automatic speech recognition component adapted to recognize spoken language in a source language and to create a source language hypothesis and a first machine translation component adapted to translate the source language hypothesis into a target language. The system also includes a second universal automatic speech recognition component adapted to recognize spoken languages in plurality of target languages spoken by a translator, and wherein the second automatic speech recognition component is further adapted to create a target language hypothesis.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes obtaining a text representation, and identifying a current topic structure for the text representation. The first topic structure is initially identified as an initial first topic structure. The method also includes identifying at least a first document that has a first document topic structure that is similar to the current first topic structure, refining the current first topic structure based on the first document topic structure, and introducing topic labels in the text representation based on the current first topic structure.

Abstract: An iterative language translation system. The system includes a first automatic speech recognition component adapted to recognize spoken language in a source language and to create a source language hypothesis and a first machine translation component adapted to translate the source language hypothesis into a target language. The system also includes a second automatic speech recognition component adapted to recognize spoken language in the target language that is spoken by a translator, and wherein the second automatic speech recognition component is further adapted to create a target language hypothesis.
