The Machine Translation group at Fondazione Bruno Kessler specializes in speech and text technologies for multilingual communication. We work on innovative neural architectures and multimodal resources for a range of topics and applications (e.g. subtitling, interpreting, gender inclusivity). We are part of the Digital Industry center.
