Integrating Editing in a Monolingual Environment
نویسنده
چکیده
A monolingual environment offers a common language for the various activities supported by the system. Previous work shows how a monolingual environment may be created for carrying out the programming, command invocation, and debugging tasks. In this paper extensions to such an environment to also support editing are discussed. The role of editing is compared with the role of interactive programming in a monolingual environment. An approach is described for integrating editing and programming languages into a powerful combined language that supports incremental replacement, the notion of composing a value before committing it, undo and redo capabilities, user-programmed changes, and selection and naming of data structures in all contexts. The approach is compared with related work, and its application to multilingual environments is discussed.

Monolingual Post-Editing by a Domain Expert is Highly Effective for Translation Triage
Various small-scale pilot studies have found that for at least some documents, monolingual target language speakers may be able to successfully post-edit machine translations. We begin by analyzing previously published post-editing data to ascertain the effect, if any, of original source language on post-editing quality. Schwartz et al. (2014) hypothesized that post-editing success may be more ...

Thomson Legal and Regulatory participated in the CLIR task of the NTCIR-4 workshop. We submitted formal runs for monolingual retrieval in Japanese, Chinese and Korean. Our bilingual runs from Chinese and Korean to Japanese rely on English as a pivot language. During our monolingual experiments, we compared building stopword lists using query logs to building stopword lists from collection stati...
متن کاملEfficacy of Explicit Teaching of Lexicographical Skills: The Case of Sudanese English Majors
A substantial body of research has revealed that EFL students conceive of a monolingual dictionary primarily as a repository of definitions to the almost utter neglect of the other entry components. Since existing lexicographical Sudanese literature has uncovered an even more subsidiary role for monolingual dictionaries, further investigations were needed to verify whether knowledge and skills ...
متن کاملEnabling Monolingual Translators: Post-Editing vs. Options
We carried out a study on monolingual translators with no knowledge of the source language, but aided by post-editing and the display of translation options. On Arabic-English and Chinese-English, using standard test data and current statistical machine translation systems, 10 monolingual translators were able to translate 35% of Arabic and 28% of Chinese sentences correctly on average, with so...
