«VKontakte» today announced the launch of a function for deciphering video messages in the VK messenger.

The deciphering technology is fully automated and operates on the basis of machine learning methods developed by the VKontakte team. For high-precision decryption, video recordings are processed by three neural networks: they recognize sounds, separating them from the video sequence, form words from the sounds and define sentence boundaries.

The company notes that messenger users can transcribe both received and sent video messages.

The technology is trained on movie subtitles and is able to understand incoherent speech and informal lexicon, remove pauses from the recording, divide the text into sentences and semantic blocks. Speech recognition is fully automated and takes place without human participation.

The technology is already working on the web version of web.vk.me and some of the users of the «VKontakte» and «VK Messenger» applications on Android can also use it.
