Accessible systems for sign language computation with Dr. Danielle Bragg

Episode 118 | June 10, 2020 – Many computer science researchers set their sights on building general AI technologies that could impact hundreds of millions – or even billions – of people. But Dr. Danielle Bragg, a senior researcher at MSR’s New England lab, has a slightly smaller and more specific population in mind: the some seventy million people worldwide who use sign languages as their primary means of communication. Today, Dr. Bragg gives us an insightful overview of the field and talks about the unique challenges and opportunities of building systems that expand access to information in line with the needs and desires of the deaf and signing community.

Taking dependencies on other libraries is usually desirable for code reuse. However, PowerShell al Continue reading Resolving PowerShell Module Assembly Dependency Conflicts
