Congratulations are due to William Schuler and colleagues (Lane Schwartz (UIUC), Timothy Miller (Harvard, Boston Children's Hospital), and Finale Doshi-Velez (Harvard)) whose project "Low Resource Languages for Emergent Incidents (LORELEI)" has been funded by DARPA at the Phase 1/Base level of $449,847 in the first year, with options for $55,316 in subsequent years. This computational linguistics project aims to enable rapid, low-cost development of the means to translate information from any language in support of emergent missions such as humanitarian assistance/disaster relief, peacekeeping, or infectious disease response.
