Cloud-based Speech Recognition for Mobile and the Web
Dave Burke, Engineering Director, Google
Over the past couple of years Google has been making big investments in cloud-based speech recognition services and
applications, particularly for the Android and Chrome platforms. Dave Burke discusses and demos Google's latest developments
and touches on some of the company's future plans in this area.
Dave Burke talks exclusively to SpeechTEK Europe about Android, smartphones, and Google's plans for speech on the web.

Bridging the Language Divide
Professor Alex Waibel, Carnegie Mellon & Karlsruhe Institute of Technology
Director of International Center on Advanced Communication Technologies (InterACT). Founder & Chairman, Mobile Technologies, LLC
As our world becomes increasingly interdependent and globalisation brings people together more than ever, it's no longer
the 'digital divide' that separates us, but the 'language divide' and its associated cultural differences. Using our mobile
phones we could connect with everyone, if only we shared a common language and a common understanding. Yet forcing uniformity
is neither realistic nor desirable. Can technology provide an answer?
