Drawing on Henri Meschonnic’s notion of an “inscient ethics,” and putting “inscience” into dialogue with the old ideal of a “science” of translation, the article explores the collective socio-affective ecologies that organize and regulate social and professional norms and values of translation below the level of conscious awareness—as the true underlying structure not only of “subjectivity” (so...

Translation memories (TMs) used in computer-aided translation (CAT) systems are the highest-quality source of parallel texts since they consist of segment translation pairs approved by professional human translators. The obvious problem is their size and coverage of new document segments when compared with other parallel data. In this paper, we describe several methods for expanding translation...

In this thesis, we investigate and extend the phrase-based approach to statistical machine translation. Due to improved concepts and algorithms, the quality of the generated translation hypotheses has been significantly improved in recent years. Still, the translation quality leaves a lot to be desired when going beyond traditional translation tasks, such as newswire articles, and when addressi...
