We have released v.3.9.3 – latest version before next major v.4 release.

Wikiled has not been in active development for more than a year and a half. But I have plans to spent some time and improve site. Last year I spent investigating machine learning techniques and I think I will be able to apply some of most promising of them to the Wikiled. As you probably aware we have developed a silverlight application for English text analysis – it divides given text into 3-Grams, finds synonyms as well as hypernyms http://www.wikiled.com/Tools/analyze.aspx. This week there will be some disruption in Wikiled as we are upgrading server and fixing some nasty bugs.

From next week we are staringt 2 months development iteration to release Wikiled 4.0 which will have next features:

1)       Spell checking

2)       Silverligh chat control

3)       Performance improvments

4)       Machine Learning algorithm to improve translation precision – “Wikiled Learn”. In first iteration it will be WebJaccard algorithm with context sensitive information parsing.

In future we want to start “Wikiled Lean” project – lightweight translation site which could operate in both translator and dictionary modes and should be targeted to mobile platrforms.

After some time we have successfully released 3.6.2 version with multiple minor fixes as well as a new silverlight keyboard implementation.

My aim is to polish existing application, fix outstanding bugs and start implementing machine learning module, which would allow dictionary’s translations.
