Abstract

In this paper we describe speech processing in the Bremen ambient assisted living lab (BAALL); how it is currently and how it can be improved in the future with the implementation of Machine Translation (MT) technology. We are experiencing the ageing population phenomenon today and thus living in a safe, autonomous, independent, and convenient way in a domestic environment with multimodal human-machine interfaces is desired. We argue for multilinguality in assisted living environments by means of development of a speech-to-speech translation (SST) system.
