About

The Language Technology Research group undertakes research in most aspect of Localization and Language Processing, particularly in Sinhala and Tamil languages. It is also involved in building linguistic resources for these languages which are much needed for carrying out such research. Finally, it also publishes its benchmarks in order that other researchers will be able to improve on work already done in this area.

Some of the work planned for the period under review include, the enhancement of a Text to Speech system together with a Screen Reader for blind access to digital content, the development of a Speech Recognition system in collaboration with an international agency, the localization of several key resources including the Wikipedia, and developing mobile tools for local language access to information services.
