Artificial Intelligence in Speech Modelling
In Russian
Level of education Master
Type of instruction Full-time
Duration 2 years
The programme is aimed at training specialists in artificial intelligence and big data in speech technologies. Graduates of the programme will be specialists in a wide range of areas: methods and algorithms for processing large amounts of audio materials to automatically generate speech messages; extraction of content information from a voice signal, in particular information about the speaker (social characteristics, physiological, mental state, etc.), verification and identification of the speaker; designing of conversational agents and human-machine speech-based interface; linguistic aspects of artificial intelligence.
