Deep Learning & Chatbots

Notes:

Janus Recognition Toolkit (JRTk) has been used by the Interactive System Lab in many projects for speech recognition, such as BABEL.  The Babel Program (IARPA) is developing agile and robust speech recognition technology that can be rapidly applied to any human language in order to provide effective search capability for analysts to efficiently process massive amounts of real-world recorded speech.
