Strengthening the Estonian Language Technology
Proceedings of the Sixth International Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation (LREC 2008)
Abstract
The paper will give an overview of developments in Estonia in the field of Human Language Technologies. Despite of the fact that Estonian is one of the smallest official languages in EU and therefore in less favourable position in the HLT-market, the national initiatives are undertaken in order to promote HLT development in Estonia. The paper will introduce recent activities in Estonia, including National Programme for Estonian Language Technology (2006-2010).
