New horizons in automation of translation QA
نویسنده
چکیده
The market of automated translation quality assurance tools offers quite a limited set of applications with the same well-known functionality as they offered a few years ago. The purpose of this paper is to review the automated translation quality assurance process, to describe several improvements we implemented in Verifika® and to provide measurement of their efficiency. In this paper we will briefly examine the role of translation quality assurance tools and the most common scenarios of their use. By looking at these activities from the viewpoint of a user interaction designer we will find improvements to make quality assurance faster, more convenient and more accurate. The measurement for implemented improvements effect will be also provided. This paper focuses only on those translation quality assurance tasks that may be formalised. Linguistic quality assurance is beyond its scope.
