Manual for postediting Russian text

چکیده
The present study is a practical guide to editors who refine partially machine-translated text as a basis for linguistic analysis. The posteditors' tasks are: to code preferred English equivalents, to code English structural symbols, to resolve grammatic properties, and to code syntactic connections (dependencies). A general introduction to the field of machine translation is contained in The RAND Corporation RM-2060.

متن کاملRetrieval methods for English-text with missrecognized OCR characters
This paper presents three probabilistic text retrieval methods designed to carry out a full-text search of English documents containing OCR errors. By searching for any query term on the premise that there are errors in the recognized text, the methods presented can tolerate such errors, and therefore costly manual postediting is not required after OCR recognition. In the applied approach, conf...
