Robust Automatic Transcription of Speech
Abstract
Robust Automatic Transcription of Speech (RATS) technology was designed to determine if and when there is speech in a captured signal to dramatically increase the efficiency and speed of communications intelligence (COMINT) signals analysis. Once speech has been detected, the technology can identify speakers, languages, and keywords in real time across multiple channels. The focus of this effort is to support counter Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) missions. Transition partner applications integrate RATS technology with digital receiver platforms to automatically alert an analyst to new channels of interest, determine if a channel should be transmitted to the ground, scan other frequencies for desired signals, and control a digital receiver to dwell on the given channel. This project is a collaboration with Naval Air Systems Command Maritime Patrol and Reconnaissance Aircraft Program Office (PMA-290), focusing on near-term deployment and follow-on integration on Navy signals intelligence platforms.
