The solution according to the given invention allows the user to use his/her arms (control body) to conduct communication using intuitive gestures performed within the field of image sensors in the same visual area as seen by the user's eyes in everyday life. The position of the control body is mapped to the position of a locator shown on the stereoscopic data glasses. In seamless communication with the machine the physical space around the user and virtual working environment shown on the data glasses become blended. Position of the control body and the performed gesture are recognized by the video processor. The video generator generates locator on the position within the active personal working environment that corresponds to the position of the control body, after the control processing device has mapped the location of the control body to the location of the locator in the active personal virtual working environment. Based on the recognized gesture performed by the control body, the control processing device conducts the action on the selected object. The user can also activate the application by using the spoken commands.

The monograph The corpus of spoken Slovene GOS presents the planning, the design and the application of the first reference corpus of spoken Slovene – GOS. The corpus GOS is an electronic collection of recordings including speakers from all over Slovenia in their most common speech situations. Taking account of the principal goals of the presented source, the authors describe the process of planning the corpus GOS, the corpus materials and the transcription system based on the pronounced and on the standardized level. The user friendly interface (www.korpusgos.net) allows to search for different words, dialects, speakers’ profiles and speech situations, in order to promote a better understanding of different demographic and genre layers of Slovene as mother tongue or foreign language.

COBISS.SI-ID: 259350016This paper proposes N-best list rescoring in order to improve the translations produced by the statistical machine translation system. Phrase-based statistical machine translation is used as a baseline. We have focused on translation between two morphologically rich languages and have extended phrase-based translation into factored translation. The factored translation system is able to produce N-best linguistically annotated translations for each input sentence. We propose to re-rank them based on scores produced by additional language models of general domain. Experiments were performed on a Serbian – Slovenian language pair. The results were evaluated in terms of two standard metrics, BLEU and TER scores. Tests of statistical significance based on approximate randomization were performed for both metrics. The improvements in terms of both metrics were statistically significant. This approach is applicable to any pair of languages, especially to languages with rich morphologies.
