1 CLST Annual Report 2012 CLST is the Centre for Language and Speech Technology. CLST operates as a separate unit within the Faculty of Arts of the Radboud University Nijmegen. CLST was founded in January Its objective is to contribute to the development of language and speech technology. CLST is active in research, application development and consultancy. Ideal projects for CLST are research projects with a link to applications. Whenever possible, CLST publishes about these projects in research journals and conference proceedings. Projects are funded and carried out within national and international research programmes, while contracts are also accepted from commercial parties. CLST focuses on research in and application of Language and Speech Technology (LST) in the following domains: Data mining & knowledge discovery Language learning and language teaching Communication in Health Care Forensics Our cross-over activities are bundled in the domain: Resources and research infrastructure Particular strengths of CLST are the following: Knowledge and expertise in speech technology, particularly in fundamental ASR technology and speech data Knowledge and expertise in language technology, particularly in the integration of rule-based and statistical processing of written language Combination of knowledge and expertise in the field of language and speech technology Combination of fundamental and applied research Strongly embedded in a ehumanities context Knowledge and expertise in the design, collection and validation of spoken and written language resources, and in the creation and maintenance of linguistic and lexical databases A firm position in a network of national and international contacts with additional expertise and knowledge In 2013 CLST will celebrate its 10 th anniversary. Preparations for the organisation of this celebration in full progress. 1

BATS, ComPoli, FASOP, LIN, MPC, PEDDS - STEVIN projects: DISCO, SoNaR - Other: Dutch Government (incl. Dutch Language Union), Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision CLST is the coordinating partner of two Marie Curie ITN projects, viz. BBfor2 and INSPIRE, and of one LLP KA2 project, viz. GOBL. CLST participated in a third one, viz. SCALE (coordinated by the University of Saarbrücken). Acquisition In the Lifelong Learning Programme (Grundvig), Helmer Strik and Catia Cucchiarini acquired a project named DigLIn Digital Literacy Instructor which aims to substantially advance literacy acquisition in Dutch, English, German and Finnish. This project intends to develop advanced learning materials for languages with different degrees of orthographic transparency and to study their impact on L2 learners literacy acquisition.. For this, the key technology is Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR). One of the partners, FrieslandCollege, already has a suitable digital learning course that will be localized to other languages, English, German and Finnish to which ASR will be added. The project is coordinated by Dr Helmer Strik. Partners are: Friesland College (NL), University of Newcastle upon Tyne (UK), University Leipzig (Germany) and the University of Jyväskylä (Finland). The project started 1 Jan and lasts for three years. CLST is the coordinating partner. H. Strik (together with M. Mulken) acquired partnership in the, European 'Lifelong Learning Programme' (LLP) project IntlUni: 'The Challenges of the Multilingual and Multicultural Learning Space in the lnternational University', David van Leeuwen acquired funds from the Dutch Language Union (in cooperation with the government of South Africa) to develop an automatic language recognizer for eleven African languages. The name of the project is Elftal (Eleven Likelihoods for the African Languages). In the same framework Helmer Strik acquired funding to organize an interdisciplinary meeting (HLT4LL) in Stellenbosch with the aim to make clear what the possibilities and challenges are of using human language technology (HLT) for language learning (LL). In the fourth open call of CLARIN-NL two projects were granted: VALID aiming at the curation of five databases with recordings and tests/analyses of persons with language impairments; and RemBench which aims at interlinking various databases centering around the life and work of the painter Rembrandt van Rijn in a demonstrator application. 3

4 Participation in new initiatives and awareness At the national level CLST keeps track of new trends and developments. To this end, CLST s director participates at Board level (Treasurer) in NOTaS (Nederlandse Organisatie voor Taal-en Spraaktechnologie), an organization in which national companies and knowledge centers cooperate to stimulate the development and application of language and speech technology in the Dutch language. In addition, in 2012, he became member of the ELRA Board. ELRA s missions are to promote language resources for the Human Language Technology (HLT) sector, and to evaluate language engineering technologies 2. Further, CLST is involved in CLARIN-NL, which is a large-scale national collaborative effort to create, coordinate and make language resources and technology available and readily usable in the Humanities and Social Sciences. 3 CLST is represented in the International Speech Communication Association Special Interest Group (ISCA SIG) on Speech and Language Technology in Education (SLaTE, ww.sigslate.org) by H. Strik (vice-president) and C. Cucchiarini. CLST members are also involved in European initiatives pertaining to the language resources infrastructure. Involvement is considered of some importance as the infrastructure impacts on the possibilities for research in the area of language and speech technology: - CLARIN-ERIC 4 - FLaReNet, which aims at developing a common vision of the area of language resources and language technologies, and fostering a European strategy for consolidating the sector, thus enhancing competitiveness at EU level and worldwide. 5 - Meta-Net which is a Network of Excellence dedicated to fostering the technological foundations of a multilingual European information society. META-NET is building the Multilingual Europe Technology Alliance (META). Bringing together researchers, commercial technology providers, private and corporate language technology users, language professionals and other information society stakeholders. 6 - CLARIAH, which aims to design, construct, and exploit a facility for ehumanities research. 7 ICT infrastructure Together with the Department of Linguistics and the Department of Business Communication CLST set-up a powerful computing and storage infrastructure at the Faculty of Science. The equipment consists of seven 16-core computing units and over 100 TB disk storage. CLST values this infrastructure as an important expansion of our computing and storage capacities. We have employed an additional ICT-specialist and programmer for system maintenance and user support. Personnel Five temporary staff members left CLST in and found employment elsewhere. Three new employees were added to the staff, two junior researchers 9 and one ICT-specialist 10. At the end of 2012 the staff employed by CLST consisted of four tenure staff members, four temporary staff members, eight PhD students, and three members with a temporary part-time posting from the Department of Linguistics, summing up to 14.4 fte (including ICT support). The institute s daily management is in the hands of the director with the support of a secretary (together 0.5 fte). The Table Due to the CLARIN-EU project similar initiatives have started in more European countries such as Germany and Norway. As of Feb. 29 th, 2012, CLARIN is also an official ERIC Sanne Frazer, Heyun Huang, Maaike Jongenelen, Mitchell McLaren, Maaske Treurniet 9 Cezara Pastrav, Juliane Schmidt 10 Bouke Versteegh 4

5 below shows the distribution of the CLST staff (in fte) over various types of contracts and financing. Student assistants are excluded from this overview. NWO-like projects Other external funding Tenure staff PhD students Other temporary staff: Junior Postdoc Secondments Dept Linguistics Sum Annual performance interviews were held with all staff members. These interviews serve to achieve a match between personal ambitions, job contents and career opportunities of individual employees. CLST reserves part of its budget for training and education of its personnel. However, staff members preferably follow offered for free by the Radboud University to its employees as part of the University s career policy. Internships This year have started extra efforts in training and educating students in the LST-related research and development. Apart from attending fairs with internships offerings for students, we have also opened a webportal where proposals for internships are displayed 11, both at Bachelor and at Master level. Customer Satisfaction For most of its projects CLST is obliged to write progress reports. These progress reports follow the templates provided by the funding bodies (NWO, EU, CLARIN-NL). Customer satisfaction in other projects (typically with companies) is monitored on a regular basis (by personally contacting the customer or telephone). Customer responses are in general very positive. Public Relations Every CLST research employee visited at least one international conference or workshop. Attendance of workshops is, as a rule, restricted to conferences to which the employee contributes an accepted paper. In all contributions the affiliation to CLST and the Radboud University is mentioned. Further PR activities in 2012 were: Website demo updates now including: o Demo of the Oral History Annotation tool from the INTER-VIEWs project o Data search in video recordings of popular TV series: Boer zoekt vrouw (BATS project) o ML Translation system for Frisian <-> Dutch: Oersetter o Rembrandt Documents project: RemDoc Website video updates now including: o Videos of applications showing some of the application potentials of the DISCO, FASOP, PEDDS projects Folders and brochures (Dutch, English) for e.g. Health Valley

6 Publicity in newspapers and radio/tv broadcasts addressing: o Threatening tweets project o Political speaking time monitor (application running during Dutch parliamentary elections period) 12 o The RemDoc project Periodicals for a general or professional audience such as DIXIT PhD Defenses & Publications One earlier CLST project resulted in an academic PhD defense in 2012: De Vriend, F.
