Make technology listen better.
Linguian is our research programme for dialect-aware speech and voice-assisted learning. It explores how tools can understand the way people naturally speak.
From speech research to a learning pilot
A research programme in development. We welcome conversations with educators and research partners.
Collect speech with consent
Document recording rights, transcription and dialect labels. Work with language specialists to review pronunciation, vocabulary and code-switching.
Evaluate across speech varieties
Keep speakers separate between training and evaluation. Compare how the system performs by speech variety, recording conditions and task.
Try an educator-led learning task
A pilot could let a learner hear a phrase, respond aloud and receive feedback, with retry or text input when recognition is uncertain. Measure learning separately from speech accuracy.
Review a sample transcription
A speaker says “Thursday at nine”. The draft transcript says “Tuesday at nine”.
See the reviewed transcript
Thursday at nine. A reviewer corrected the day and marked the time for confirmation before publishing.
