| The Finnish natural language processing pioneer Lingsoft has provided an automatically generated word stem list to Swiss-based SVOX, for the use in Finnish language development. SVOX develops small-footprint TTS and ASR solutions tailored for automotive and mobile industries, and therefore needs an efficient way to deal with the rich morphology of Finnish language, in which, a certain word can have fundamental stem changes when inflected. Lingsoft used its Finnish morphology analyzer and stem generator to produce adequate stems for a selected word list automatically. "Various SVOX TTS systems are already used in many products available on the Finnish market, such as automotive infotainment systems and personal navigation systems, but without support for our native language. Lingsoft is proud to contribute our gold-standard language technology to bring Finnish language to the SVOX portfolio, and thus to enable Finnish language in end-user products that will be used by many Finns," said Juhani Reiman, CEO of Lingsoft.
