Second International Workshop on Free/Open-source, Rule-based Machine Translation, Barcelona, Spain
20 January 2011 - 20 January 2011
Spain
The Second International Workshop on Free/Open-source, Rule-based Machine Translation will be held from 20 to 21 January 2011 in Barcelona, Spain.
The event will aim to bring together the experience of researchers and developers in the field of rule-based machine translation (RMBT) who have specialised in the free/open-source are and are effectively contributing to creating a common knowledge: machine translation rules and dictionaries, and machine translation systems whose behaviour is transparent and clearly traceable through their explicit logic.
The main areas of interest for the event include:
- language-independent toolkits, platforms, and frameworks for rule-based machine translation;
- language-specific machine translation systems;
- hybrid systems where RBMT is the main component;
- manual and automated evaluation of machine translation systems, comparative evaluation of RBMT and SMT/hybrid systems;
- linguistic resources for RBMT (machine-readable dictionaries, part-of-speech taggers, morphological analysers, syntactic or semantic parsers etc.);
- methods for inducing/inferring data for RBMT systems (supervised, semi-supervised or unsupervised);
- interoperability between systems, tools, data;
- practical descriptions of RBMT integration and usage (in publishing, by professional translators, for free/open-source software).For further information, please visit: http://www.uoc.edu/freerbmt11/(opens in new window)
