Autonomy develops the world's most accurate Arabic, Mandarin Chinese and Russian speech recognition technology
Developments in Arabic, Mandarin and Russian speech recognition put Autonomy ahead of the market
Cambridge, UK - March 6, 2006 - Autonomy Corporation plc (LSE: AU. or AU.L), a global leader in infrastructure software for the enterprise, today announced that its SoftSound division offers the world’s most accurate real-time speech recognition technology for Arabic, Mandarin and Russian. Not only do its advanced capabilities more than equal existing competitors’ claims, but its performance in recognizing the Russian language is unique. Standard evaluation corpora created by the US Government were used to test the technology in Cambridge, UK, and Massachusetts, USA. One of the key advantages of the SoftSound system is that it has a much smaller hardware requirement than any other speech recognition engine that operates in real-time.
David Palmer, Vice President of Research for Virage, was pleased to offer the following comment: "The current system is very competitive with any commercial speech recognition system in both Mandarin Chinese and Arabic, and it has unique capabilities in languages such as Russian. I find it truly amazing that Autonomy has developed an Arabic speech recognition system from scratch that produces results comparable to other market systems, which have been under constant development for over 5 years."
Autonomy's demonstrable and continued commitment to developing cutting edge technology has placed SoftSound at the front of the market. Autonomy's SoftSound solution offers the only speech recognition technology that delivers the most accurate results in real-time, and includes advanced features such as automatic learning and updating of language modules. Russian, Mandarin and Arabic join the portfolio of languages from Autonomy including UK English, US English, Australian English, Canadian English, Dutch, German, French, Canadian French, Italian, Greek, Spanish, Catalan, Polish, Danish, and Romanian.
