Project Adaptation for MT-Enhanced Computer Assisted Translation
Mauro Cettolo, Nicola Bertoldi, Marcello Federico · 2013
The effective integration of MT technology into CAT tools is a challenging topic both for academic research and the translation industry. Particularly, professional translators feel crucial the ability of MT systems to adapt to their feedback. In this paper, we propose an adaptation scheme to tune a statistical MT system to a translation project using small amounts of postedited texts. By running field tests on two domains with 8 professional translators working with a CAT tool, productivity gains up to over 20% were measured after applying MT project adaptation.
