What is Pemt in translation?
Post-edited machine translation (PEMT) is a type of translation that requires the reviewing, editing and correction of machine translations by a human to achieve a better output. When utilizing machine translations (MT), post-editing is necessary.
How do you evaluate a translation product?
How I Evaluate Translations
- Did the translator comprehend the source text, and is that expertise conveyed in the translated text?
- Does the translation flow naturally in the target language or would a different choice of words be better?
- Is the translation correct for the intended audience?
- Is the text consistent?
What is MT editing?
Machine translation (MT) is continuously improving by becoming faster, cheaper, and more accurate. Machine translation post-editing (MTPE) helps combine the best of both worlds: the speed and ability of MT engines to quickly handle large volumes of text with the skill and sensitivity of trained linguists.
What is post-editing in machine translation?
Post-editing means that a human translator is editing or revising text that has been translated by machine translation software. Post-editing replaces conventional translation for MT projects.
What is Pemt service?
PEMT (post-editing machine translation) is a feature that we implemented a few months ago in some language pairs as a way to leverage technology to make the translation process more efficient while increasing consistency and quality.
What is a Pemt task?
PEMT stands for Post-Editing of Machine Translation. It’s a very hard task involving editing a machine-translated text. Based on industry standards, the rate charged is usually LOWER than your translation rate and HIGHER than your proofreading rate.
How is translation quality measured?
When assessing translation quality, recognize the difference between mistakes and preferential choices. Translators will make informed decisions based on the target audience, as well as any contextual material they’ve been given to help them understand a company’s tone and voice.
What is translation evaluation?
By ‘evaluation’ the author refers to how a translator’s subjective stance manifests itself linguistically in a text. This is key reading for researchers and postgraduates studying translation theory within Translation and Interpreting Studies.
What is MT light post-editing?
Light post-editing This involves performing as few modifications as possible to the raw MT output in order to make the translation understandable, factually accurate and grammatically correct. Light post-editing tasks include: Deleting unnecessary or extra translation alternatives generated by the engine.
Is machine translation post-editing worth the effort?
While recent studies indicate that post-editing high-quality machine translations can indeed increase productivity in terms of translation speed, editing poor machine translations can be an unproductive task.
Why post-editing is important than a machine translation?
Apart from the fact that post-editing ensures accurate translations, it also helps streamline future machine translation projects. For example, we can learn about the more common errors that are likely to show up.
What is post-editing job?
Post-editing is the process whereby a human translator revises a machine-generated translation to deliver a final product. We have increasingly seen corporations and language service agencies requiring professional translators to revise machine-translated texts, instead of translating them from scratch.
What is post editing machine translation ( PEMT )?
PEMT (post-editing machine translation) is a feature that we implemented a few months ago in some language pairs as a way to leverage technology to make the translation process more efficient while increasing consistency and quality.
What’s the difference between TM matches and PEMT?
TM matches are translations that have been done previously by another translator, and then reused to aid you on your translation work. On the other hand, PEMT suggestions are translations done by a machine, with no human input, and are meant as a reference.
How to keep track of your progress in PEMT?
To keep track of your progress, you can use the filter button to easily find “Confirmed” and “Unconfirmed” jobs. If you need to fix a job you have already confirmed (but before submitting everything), you can still edit it by selecting “Unconfirm” under the “Confirmed” button drop-down.
Which is the best engine for machine translation?
The quality of your translation will depend on which MT-Engine you use since different engines are more suitable for certain language pairs. Some engines include Yandex MT, Baidu Translate, DeepL, GTCOM, Amazon Translate, Systran and ProMT. Be selective with which content to use in the MTPE Process.
