TALES is a UIMA-based system which performs multimedia mining and translation of broadcast news and news Web sites. For broadcast video news, TALES performs video capture, automatic speech-to-text conversion, machine translation of the foreign text to English, and information extraction. English speakers can monitor the translated news in near real time, or place English language queries over the foreign language content, and get results, both relevant video segments as well as the translation of the speech in English. For the Web sites, TALES performs the machine translation and information extraction, again, supporting translingual search. Currently TALES supports English queries over Chinese and Arabic.
