SOFTWARE & RESOURCES
Research. Innovate. Develop.
Innovating and working with our partners to research and develop applications within Human Language Technology (HLT). We specifically focus on text technology, by collecting, sourcing, and processing resource-scarce language data.
Our aim is to help build the core technologies that in turn will be used in projects that use language tools within the South African context. Our research focuses on these projects to further improve and build new technologies within HLT.
