Speech recognition
Speech recognition system allows to input a text in computer by microphone without keyboard. The system automatically converts human speech to text and allows fast text input. In the future this system also will allow controlling other devices via voice. Speech recognition system for Azerbaijani language is able to recognize more than the 90,000 word-forms and has 85% accuracy. Works on improvement of the accuracy are currently underway.
Text-to-speech
Text-to-speech system converts the text into speech. Users can listen to the input text which is in Azerbaijan language. Users also will be able to listen to letters, news, books and other information without interrupting the work, with the help of this system. It is planned to release system for online use.
Phone translator
Phone-translator system will allow to translate phone conversations from Azerbaijani language into other languages and vice versa. This system consist of the speech recognition, machine translation and text-to-speech systems.
e-Dictionary
Creation of electronic dictionaries from Azerbaijani language into other languages and vice versa is one of the projects which are carried out within the Dilmanc. The inclusion of all word-forms in the dictionary is one of the different features of this dictionary. İt is especially useful for users who don't know a foreign languages, because it is hard for them to find the root of word-form and search in dictionary.
Currently works on English-Azerbaijani and Russian-Azerbaijani directions are in stage of testing.
Frequency Dictionary of Azerbaijani language
The compiling of Frequency Dictionary of Azerbaijani language has been started under the leadership of academician Abbasov within the Dilmanc project. The text-corpus which consists of more than 12 million word-forms and the special software which allows statistical researches in this corpus has been developed. Researches will allow to determine the most used words and suffixes in modern Azerbaijani language. The results will be used in the development of the linguistic technologies for Azerbaijani language such as machine translation, speech recognition and text-to-spech system etc. Works are continued.
Reverse Alphabetical Dictionary
This dictionary has been compiled on the basis of the latest version of the spelling dictionary of Azerbaijani language. This dictionary differs from other dictionaries: Words are sorted alphabetically not from beginning, but from end. Thus the words with the same endings are located in the same group in reverse dictionary.
