Improved Data Augmentation for Translation Suggestion

2022-10-12 · Hongxiao Zhang, Siyu Lai, Songming Zhang, Hui Huang, Yufeng Chen, Jinan Xu, Jian Liu

Translation suggestion (TS) models are used to automatically provide alternative suggestions for incorrect spans in sentences generated by machine translation. This paper introduces the system used in our submission to the WMT'22 Translation Suggestion shared task. Our system is based on the ensemble of different translation architectures, including Transformer, SA-Transformer, and DynamicConv. We use three strategies to construct synthetic data from parallel corpora to compensate for the lack of supervised data. In addition, we introduce a multi-phase pre-training strategy, adding an additional pre-training phase with in-domain data. We rank second and third on the English-German and English-Chinese bidirectional tasks, respectively.

Smarter edits? Post-editing with error highlights and translation suggestions

2026-05-20 · Fleur V. J. van Tellingen, Gautam Ranka, Dora Žugčić, Joyce van der Wal 외 arxiv

As MT quality increases, interest in enhanced post-editing features such as QE-derived error highlights is growing, yet evidence for their usefulness remains limited. In this work, we explore the usefulness of LLM-derive…

Missed opportunities in translation memory matching

2014-05-01 · LREC 2014 5 · Friedel Wolff, Laurette Pretorius, Paul Buitelaar

A translation memory system stores a data set of source-target pairs of translations. It attempts to respond to a query in the source language with a useful target text from the data set to assist a human translator. Suc…
