Better Medical Search
ÚFAL enabled multi-lingual search as a part of the KConnect iniciative where we work together with health care providers and commercial organisations to explore the use of NLP in the medical domain.
Multi-lingual search is available in French, German or Czech, with more languages due in the next 6-12 months.
