The combination of dynamic user-generated content and multilingual aspects is particularly prominent in Wiki sites. Wikis have gained increased popularity over the last few years as a means of collaborative content creation as they allow users to set up and edit web pages directly. A growing number of organizations use Wikis as an efficient means to provide and maintain information across several sites. Currently, multilingual Wikis rely on users to manually translate different Wiki pages on the same subject. This is not only a time-consuming procedure but also the source of many inconsistencies, as users update the different language versions separately, and every update would require translators to compare the different language versions and synchronize the updates. The overall aim of the CoSyne project is to automate the dynamic multilingual synchronization process of Wikis.

π AdvST: Adversarial training aligns speech and text distributions without parallel data! Combines adversarial learning + hidden-state swapping to fix length mismatch & boost low-resource speech translation. https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10888294
A special evening in Rome to talk about Physical AI and Europeβs role in shaping this new frontier.
Partners from across Europe came together to present the DVPS project, and connect with key people from public institutions, embassies, industries, national & international media.
Thrilled to be part of this amazing project and team!
π DVPS has launched at Translated's HQ!
70 researchers from 20 institutions across 9 countries unite to build next-gen multimodal foundation models that learn from real-world interaction.
A new European AI journey begins.
