1 Functions
The Speech Translation with Descriptors (MMC-STD) AIM receives an utterance (input speech) and a code identifying a language and produces an output speech which is a translation of the input speech in that language with the speech descriptors of the input speech:
| Receives | Speech Object |
| Language Selector | |
| Produces | Synthesised Translated Speech Object having the Descriptors of the input Speech Object. |

8 Conformance Testing
Table 2 provides the Conformance Testing Method for MMC-STD AIM. Conformance Testing of the individual AIMs of the MMC-STD Composite AIM are given by the individual AIM Specification.
If a schema contains references to other schemas, conformance of data for the primary schema implies that any data referencing a secondary schema shall also validate against the relevant schema, if present and conform with the Qualifier, if present.
Table 2 – Conformance Testing Method for MMC-STD AIM
| Input | Speech Object | Shall validate against Speech Object schema. Speech Data shall conform with Speech Qualifier. |
| Language Selector | Shall validate against Language Selector schema. | |
| Output | Speech Object | Shall validate against Speech Object schema. Speech Data shall conform with Speech Qualifier. |
Table 3 provides an example of MMC-STD AIM conformance testing.
Table 3 – An example MMC-STD AIM conformance testing
| Input Data | Data Type | Input Conformance Testing Data |
| Language Selector | Selector | All Language Selectors to be drawn from Language Codes. |
| Speech Object | Speech | All input Speech files to be drawn from Speech files. |
| Output Data | Data Type | Input Conformance Test Results |
| Translated Speech | Speech | All Speech files produced shall conform with Speech files. |
