Computer Science

Language translator is a speech to speech translation application for android mobile phone, which translates from English speech to Sinhala speech and vice versa. The main objective of this translator is to enable a smooth communication in medical sector between patients and Doctors/administration staff, therefore eliminate the language barrier. Language Translator consists of three modules- Automatic Speech Recognition(ASR), Machine Translation(MT) system, Text to Speech Synthesis. ASR module captures the source speech/voice of the user from the mobile through speaker, then converts the speech into text and then the text is sent to next module, Machine Translation system for further translation. Machine Translation(MT) module is the process of translation, this module already consists of library for both language and when text is received, it converts the text of source language to the target language as per user choice and sends the translated text to last module for further translation. Text to Speech Synthesis module is text to speech translator i.e. when it receives the translated text, this module further processes on converting it into speech and then makes it sends as user output in the desired target language demanded by user. Thus, Language Translation application works by combining all these three modules and gives the user best output.
