Expected Impacts Listed in the Work Sample Clauses

Expected Impacts Listed in the Work. Programme A few months after the European Year of Equal Opportunities for All it is very important that all chances are taken to avoid new barriers growing from new forms of communication to find their role in the society in large. Dicta-Sign will be the key technology to promote sign language communication and provide Web 2.0 services and other HCI technologies to Deaf sign language users, an important linguistic minority in Europe so far excluded from these new developments. As the field of sign language technology is still very young, it is beyond the scope of a 3-year STREP to catch up completely with mainstream language technology and to deliver end-user products. Dicta-Sign concentrates on significantly advancing the enabling technologies by a multidisciplinary approach and to come close enough so that designers of future natural language systems can fully take sign languages into account. It is therefore vital to disseminate the results of the project not only within its home disciplines. This will not only be done by the respective activities of those partners involved in general language technology (esp. XXXXXX RC and CNRS), but also by means of a workshop at the end of the project. The tools integrated in WP7 will be demonstrated in WP8 and also as part of the WP9 activities fitting into the scenarios expected by the attendees from natural language technology and the ECA (Embodied Conversational Agents) communities. Apart from the major academic institutions which have expressed their interest in scientific collaboration, several organisations active in virtual agents as well as telecom operators and broadcasters have already expressed their interest in Dicta-Sign technology, and this interest can be expected to attract further members of the industry. The interest of service providers to the Deaf community to get early access to the technology to be developed in Dicta-Sign, in order to produce end-user products they consider essential for their customers, is strong evidence for the success of this approach. The areas of image processing, computer vision, language technology and virtual human technology are all research areas where advances have significant impact on contemporary society, with respect to the kind of data stored, and the manner in which humans interact with computers. The integration of these technologies is essential to support bidirectional communication in sign language. The combination of leading researchers in these areas uni...
