  |  | The expertise in these core technologies is integrated into 3 main research strands: '''[[Semantic Processing of Multimedia Contents|semantic processing of multimedia contents]]''', '''[[Multimodal Dialogue Systems|spoken/multimodal dialogue systems]]''' and '''[[Speech-to-speech Translation|speech-to-speech translation]]'''. The original focus on European Portuguese has now been broadened to encompass '''[[Speech Processing for all Varieties of Portuguese|all varieties of Portuguese]]'''. Two application areas also deserve our special attention: e-learning and e-inclusion, namely in the development of [http://www.l2f.inesc-id.pt/~lco/eugenio/index.html alternative and augmentative communication tools] for people with special needs.  |
