Augmenting Communication using Environmental Data to drive Language Prediction – ACE-LP
成人VR视频
This project aims to change how people with no speech and complex disabilities can converse. Current computer-based systems – voice output communication aids (VOCAs) – use word prediction to speed typing. These average about 15 words a minute, but people without impairments speak about 10 times faster. The research team aims to produce a VOCA system that will predict words and phrases and also offer extended interaction by predicting narrative text elements tailored to a conversation. “In current systems, users sometimes pre-store monologue ‘talks’, but sharing personal experiences and stories interactively using VOCAs is rare,” said Annalu Waller, professor of human communication technologies at the University of Dundee. “Being able to relate experience enables us to engage with others and allows us to participate in society.”
