内容紹介

As our world becomes increasingly interdependent and globalization brings people together more than ever, we quickly discover that it is no longer the "digital divide" that separates us, but the "language divide" and the cultural differences that come with it. Nearly everyone has a cell phone and *could* connect with everyone else on the planet, if only they shared a common language and a common understanding. Forcing uniformity (“everyone speaks English”), however, is neither realistic nor desirable, as we enjoy the beauty and individuality of each of our languages and cultural heritage. Can technology provide an answer?In this talk, I will discuss language technology solutions that offer us the best of both worlds: maintaining our cultural diversity while enabling the integration, communication and collaboration that our modern world has to offer. I will present cross-lingual computer Communication systems from our University labs as well as from our start-up ventures.
