What Are Dolphins Talking About? Gavagai's Using Linguistics, AI, and Machine Learning to Find Out

The research is meant to demonstrate Gavagai's Word Space Technology, which utilizes artificial intelligence and machine learning to independently decipher and learn languages. So far, with over 20 years of development, Gavagai's software has learned 40 human languages, modeling languages on meaning instead of their structure. The company will challenge its technology by applying it to dolphin communication. It is suspected that dolphins communicate using complex patterns of clicking and whistles, and it's even been posited that dolphins have what appear to be conversations. However, the meaning behind this communication is--so far--not known, and research so far has been based on structure and repeated patterns in communication.
