What is CSLU?

Carrying the momentum of recent explosions in processing power, the field of Spoken Language Technologies has launched itself into a new era of rapid growth and change. A few years from now, conversing with our computers will be as common as making phone calls from our car, sending pictures over the telephone, or browsing the Internet is today.

CSLU is an Oregon Graduate Institute of Science and Technology Research Center that focuses on Spoken Language Technologies. Limited only by creativity of application, Speech Technologies are currently considered for helping people with visual, speech, or learning problems, dictating letters directly into a computer, accessing the internet over the phone, using voice commands to control devices, and education. Uniquely positioned to play a part in the development of this burgeoning field, development at CSLU offers many advantages:
  • Broad coverage of speech and language technologies and academic disciplines
  • Comprehensive scientific and commercial experience ranging from applied to basic science and from consulting to product development
  • Situated in an enterpreneurial university focused on high technology
  • A history of working with both corporate and academic partners
