Feasibility study of personal interactive machine translation systems
نویسنده
چکیده
Most existing practical machine translation systems are designed to translate documentation, such as technical papers and manuals. However, there is a growing need for translating not only large texts but also personal short texts such as letters and informal messages. The conventional machine translation systems, which are intended to translate large texts, are not very suitable for these kinds of small jobs. We need an interactive system which has a totally different design philosophy. This paper describes the design philosophy of personal/interactive machine translation system, and studies its feasibility.

ITS-2 : an interactive personal translation system
ITS-2 is an interactive sentence translation system under development at the LATL lab of the University of Geneva. In its current status, ITS-2 translates French sentences into English or English into French over a still restricted vocabulary of approximately 3'000 bilingual entries. The main objectives of this project are (i) to show some of the advantages of interactive approaches to NL trans...
متن کاملThe Correlation of Machine Translation Evaluation Metrics with Human Judgement on Persian Language
Machine Translation Evaluation Metrics (MTEMs) are the central core of Machine Translation (MT) engines as they are developed based on frequent evaluation. Although MTEMs are widespread today, their validity and quality for many languages is still under question. The aim of this research study was to examine the validity and assess the quality of MTEMs from Lexical Similarity set on machine tra...

Elaborating an appropriate cellular manufacturing system (CMS) could solve many structural and operational issues. Thereby, considering some significant factors as worker skill, machine hardness, and product quality levels could assist the companies in current competitive environment. This paper proposes a novel interactive possibilistic mixed integer nonlinear approach to minimize the total co...
متن کاملOCR and Automated Translation for the Navigation of non-English Handsets: A Feasibility Study with Arabic
In forensics, mobile phones or handsets store potentially valuable information such as Contact lists, SMS Messages, or possibly emails and Calendar appointments. However, navigating to this content on non-English configured handsets, when the operator is untrained in the language, becomes a difficult task. We discuss a feasibility study that explored the performance of optical character recogni...
متن کاملWord Completion : A First Step TowardTarget - Text Mediated
We argue that the conventional approach to Interactive Machine Translation is not the best way to provide assistance to skilled translators, and propose an alternative whose central feature is the use of the target text as a medium of interaction. We describe an automatic word-completion system intended to serve as a vehicle for exploring the feasibility of this new approach, and give results i...
