Machine Translation Resources

Statistical Machine Translation
This website is dedicated to research in statistical machine translation, i.e. the translation of text from one human language to another by a computer that learned how to translate from vast amounts of translated text.
Center for Research and Innovation in Translation and Translation Technology (CRITT)
The primary aim of the research carried out at CRITT is to build up new knowledge of translation and communication processes and provide a basis for technological innovation in this field. On the one hand, the center's research looks outward at the transformational processes in organizations and societies that are significant features of globalization, and, on the other hand, it looks inward at the mental and language processes which constitute communication and translational expertise.

Machine Translation and Global Research by Lynne Bowker; Jairo Buitrago Ciro
ISBN: 9781787567214
Publication Date: 2019
For scholars, they explain how machine translation works, how it is (or could be) used for scholarly communication, and how both native and non-native English-speakers can write in a translation-friendly way in order to harness its potential. Native English speakers can continue to write in English, but expand the global reach of their research by making it easier for their peers around the world to access and understand their works, while non-native English speakers can write in their mother tongues, but leverage machine translation technology to help them produce draft publications in English.
The Human Factor in Machine Translation by Sin-wai Chan (Editor)
ISBN: 9781315147536
Publication Date: 2018
Despite the rapid advances in machine translation, the role of a human translator remains crucial. As illustrated by the chapters in this book, man-machine interaction is essential in machine translation, localisation, terminology management, and crowdsourcing translation.
Machine Translation by Pushpak Bhattacharyya
ISBN: 9781439897195
Publication Date: 2015
Three paradigms have dominated machine translation (MT)-rule-based machine translation (RBMT), statistical machine translation (SMT), and example-based machine translation (EBMT). These paradigms differ in the way they handle the three fundamental processes in MT-analysis, transfer, and generation (ATG).

Machine Translation Associations

European Association for Machine Translation (EAMT)
The European Association for Machine Translation (EAMT) is an organization that serves the growing community of people interested in MT and translation tools, including users, developers, and researchers of this increasingly viable technology.
Association for Machine Translation in the Americas (AMTA)
AMTA is the North American component of the International Association for Machine Translation (IAMT) and was founded in 1991.
Asia-Pacific Association for Machine Translation (AAMT)
The association is comprised of three entities: researchers, manufacturers, and users of machine translation systems. The association endeavors to develop machine translation technologies to expand the scope of effective global communications. For this purpose the association is engaged in machine translation system development, improvement, education, and publicity.
