Vivek - Homeless Prophet
READ THIS FIRST: I respect and love Vivek, back when I was 19 - we were making a comedy public access show so I felt it necessary to make it funny. I really love this video and have spoken to the man and given him about $50 since making the video, it has been seen by hundreds of people. Hope you can decipher the intelligence from the stupidity - and for the records, I still think it's kind of funny.

Vivek Kumar Rangarajan Sridhar- RESEARCH SCIENTIST -- NEW GRAD
Google Tech Talks
July 7, 2008
ABSTRACT
Current statistical speech translation approaches predominantly rely on just text transcripts and do not adequately utilize the rich contextual information such as prosody and discourse function that are conveyed beyond words and syntax. In this talk I will introduce a novel framework for enriching speech translation with prosodic prominence and dialog acts. Our approach of incorporating rich information in speech translation is motivated by the fact that it is important to capture and convey not only what is being communicated (the words) but how something is being communicated (the context). First, I will present various techniques that we have developed for automatically detecting prosody and dialog acts from speech and text, and will survey some of the most important results of our contribution. I will then describe techniques for the integration of these rich representations in spoken language translation.
