TransType2 - An Innovative Computer-Assisted Translation System
نویسندگان
چکیده
TT2 is an innovative tool for speeding up and facilitating the work of translators by automatically suggesting translation completions. Different versions of the system are being developed for English, French, Spanish and German by an international team of researchers from Europe and Canada. Two professional translation agencies are currently evaluating successive prototypes.

A Computer-Assisted Translation Tool based on Finite-State Technology
The Computer-Assisted Translation (CAT) paradigm tries to integrate human expertise into the automatic translation process. In this paradigm, a human translator interacts with a translation system that dynamically offers a list of translations that best completes the part of the sentence that is being translated. This human-machine sinergy aims at a double goal, to increase translator productiv...

Machine translation can play an important role nowadays, helping communication between people. One of the projects in this field is TransType2 1. Its purpose is to develop an innovative, interactive machine translation system. TransType2 aims at facilitating the task of producing high-quality translations, and make the translation task more cost-effective for human translators. To achieve this ...
متن کاملStatistical Approaches to Computer-Assisted Translation
Current machine translation (MT) systems are still not perfect. In practice, the output from these systems needs to be edited to correct errors. A way of increasing the productivity of the whole translation process (MT plus human work) is to incorporate the human correction activities within the translation process itself, thereby shifting the MT paradigm to that of computer-assisted translatio...
متن کاملTransType2 : The Last Word
This paper presents the results of the usability evaluations that were conducted within TransType2, an international R&D project the goal of which was to develop a novel approach to interactive machine translation. We briefly sketch the TransType system and then describe the methodology that we elaborated for the five rounds of user trials that were held on the premises of two translation agenc...
متن کاملThe Contribution of End-Users to the TransType2 Project
TransType2 is a novel kind of interactive MT in which the system and the user collaborate in drafting a target text, the system’s contribution taking the form of predictions that extend what the translator has already typed in. TT2 is also an international research project in which end-users are represented by two translation firms. We describe the contribution of these translators to the proje...
