- Abstract
Ten years ago, when the META-NET Network of Excellence conducted a study on language technology support for European languages, Latvian was included in the category of languages with little or no support. During the last decade, notable progress has been made in the development of language resources and tools for Latvian, particularly regarding the creation of advanced datasets like speech corpora and treebanks, state-of-the-art neural language models, machine translation systems, speech technology, and technologies for natural language understanding and human-computer interaction. This paper provides an overview of the most recent activities in the language technology field in Latvia: national and international initiatives, key language resources and tools, key projects and initiatives. We summarize both the recent activities and the most significant achievements after the publication of the META-NET White Paper on Latvian.
