   Description

   Addressing the extensive technological shift in the translation industry and the evolving skillset required for language professionals is essential in today’s “fourth industrial revolution.” Advancements in AI and machine learning are transforming traditional translation workflows and demand new training paradigms for future translators. The Erasmus+ project LT-LiDER, building on MultiTraiNMT (Kenny 2022), FOIL (https://foil.cti.gr/), DigiLing (https://learn.digiling.eu/), and DataLitMT (Hackenbuchner & Krüger 2023), seeks to create training resources that support translation educators in integrating AI and digital literacy into their curricula. LT-LiDER’s approach begins by mapping the translation industry’s changing skill requirements combining insights from prior research and in-depth interviews to identify current and emerging needs. The presentation will showcase LT-LiDER’s findings, emphasising how these insights can help educators and trainees adapt to the rapidly evolving landscape. Central to this discussion is identifying key tools and competencies for today’s translators. We present a map enriched with data from the LT-LiDER interviews and based on the ISO 17100:2015 translation workflow and the Tradumàtica digitised translation process (Sánchez-Gijón and Palenzuela-Badiola, 2023). The map highlights skills needed at specific stages in a translation workflow and our findings underscore that while translators continue to offer valuable human qualities, training programmes must evolve to include hands-on AI experience. LT-LiDER’s goal is to ensure that future translators not only gain proficiency with AI technologies but also retain the unique human skills essential to high-quality translation.

6. Enhancing a PEMT Task with Speech Synthesis– Getting Inspiration from the Audio in the Audiovisual

   Description

   The multimodal aspect of audiovisual translation has been written about as both a challenge and an opportunity – it requires a translation to be in synch with the visual and audio channels while supporting meaning making for both translators and the target viewers. We set out to explore if this positive effect can extend beyond AVT and support a neural machine translation (NMT) post editing task (PEMT). We investigate if, by accessing the text to be translated also in an audio format delivered via synthetic voices can support translators in their PEMT work. This research was also inspired by the rapid development of synthetic voices and their ubiquity in everyday life.
   The results are part of the project “The impact of Speech Synthesis on cognitive load, productivity and quality during post-editing machine translation (PEMT)” funded by Imminent (the research arm of Translated) and carried out at the University of Vienna HAITrans Research group led by Univ.-Prof. Dragoș Ciobanu https://haitrans.univie.ac.at/research/imminent-the-impact-of-speech-synthesis-on-cognitive-load-productivity-and-quality-during-post-editing-machine-translation-pemt/

20. Introduction to MT post-editing: theory, best practice and pitfalls

    • Department for Translation Studies

    Period	1 Feb 2024
    Dragos Ioan Ciobanu (Invited speaker)

    Description

    The webinar provides an overview of several crucial topics that language professionals need to understand to navigate the complexities of machine translation (MT) within the language services industry effectively:
    - how Neural Machine Translation (NMT) models are built, how they "learn", and how they can be further improved through fine-tuning;
    - current MT evaluation methods, with general benefits and drawbacks;

This webinar featured Dragoș Ciobanu, Professor of Computational Terminology and Machine Translation in the University of Vienna Centre for Translation Studies, and leader of the HAITrans research group (Human and Artificial Intelligence in Translation). For more information, please visit https://haitrans.univie.ac.at/ The webinar provides an overview of several crucial topics that language professionals need to understand to navigate the complexities of machine translation (MT) within the language services industry effectively: - how Neural Machine Translation (NMT) models are built, how they "learn", and how they can be further improved through fine-tuning; - current MT evaluation methods, with general benefits and drawbacks; - how NMT is integrated into Computer-Assisted Translation (CAT) tools and how to avoid confusing translation memory (TM) match scores with quality estimation (QE) ones in the CAT interface; - what MT post-editing is and what is expected of post-editors; - an alternative to post-editing in silence: speech-enabled post-editing.

    Description

    The quality and coverage of Machine Translation output is constantly improving nowadays, solving a range of practical problems, but also introducing new ones. At the same time, professional linguists are mostly working with the same tools and in the same environment with which they have been accustomed since the 1990s, which makes dealing with the latest neural machine translation (NMT)-specific challenges rather difficult. This talk will illustrate with examples some of these challenges, will situate NMT use within the context of other technologies which help professional linguists, and will propose new environments and workflows to address some of the latest issues.

    In this presentation, we discussed the impact on quality of fine-tuning a Multilingual Neural Machine Translation (MNMT) model with in-domain medical data for English-Romanian. We compared an out-of-domain MNMT model with the in-domain adapted MNMT model using automatic metrics and human error annotation based on a terminology-specific error typology, and showed that the in-domain MNMT model outperformed the general model across most metrics and produced fewer terminology-related errors.

    Description

    Recent developments in neural machine translation (NMT) have led to its integration in various translation workflows, frequently as post-editing of machine translation (PEMT) tasks. Using concrete examples of NMT use from the industry, institutions and training contexts, as well as data from research, the presenters will discuss the pros and cons of neural machine translation in professional translation contexts. The topics to be addressed will range from scenarios suitable for PEMT, quality and productivity in PEMT workflows, and differences between PEMT and revision, to translation strategies for PEMT, integration of further tools in PEMT, and impact of MT on linguists, translation process and product. The aim is to facilitate fruitful interactions between participants and stimulate discussions about technological advancements and their impact on the occupational status, visibility and work of professional translators.
    
    This presentation is part of the collaboration between the University of Vienna and UNOV within the IAMLADP Universities Contact Group. The Universities Contact Group of the IAMLADP Working Group on Training acts as liaison between international organizations and universities as training providers, and promotes information exchange, cooperation and better relations between the two constituencies.

    Dragos Ioan Ciobanu (Speaker) Alina Secara (Speaker)

    Description

    This presentation focuses on the MT evaluation and PEMT components of an MT seminar recently introduced in the new curriculum available to both undergraduate and postgraduate students of the University of Vienna (UniVie) Centre for Translation Studies (ZTW). An MT literacy task (Bowker, 2020) was extended to enable 103 students enrolled in five seminar groups to choose English (EN) scientific abstracts relevant to several UniVie faculties, collect raw MT output into German (DE) or another preferred target language (TL) from three freely-available engines of their choice, and become proficient users of a professional MT customisation and evaluation tool – KantanAI . This tool was used to conduct, first, one experiment designed to single out the best-performing MT engine through a ranking task assessing overall quality, adequacy, and fluency (Task 1 – AB Test). This first experiment was followed by a second one (Task 2 – QE Test) assessing the perceived quality of the overall best-ranked engine from Task 1 through adequacy and fluency ratings once again, supplemented by error annotation and post-editing.

    Description

    As translation volumes increase, machine translation implementations improve in a variety of language pairs and domains, and ‘automation’ vies for the position of top industry buzzword, translators are increasingly expected to handle more content in less time without jeopardising quality. However, the vast majority of specialised tools they currently use have not evolved at the same pace. This presentation will discuss some of the advantages and pitfalls of integrating speech technologies into translators’ workspaces. Despite not being present by default in mainstream translation, revision, and post-editing tools, there are still ways in which translators can test dictation and speech synthesis for themselves, as we will experience together. At the end of the day, this spoonful of speech technologies sugar will hopefully make the neural machine translation (among others) medicine go down more easily.

Klaus is a former Chair of the Globalization and Localization Association (GALA) Board, and CEO of the Kaleidoscope Group, an Austrian enterprise that provides a wide range of translation-related solutions. In the Smart Global Content Production Process, content is first created in a modern, often modular fashion, and then translated, managed and delivered. Each step of the process involves specialised tools and job roles, and requires attention to detail, technical competence and a proactive attitude. Klaus further explained how his company manages quality processes, also with regard to the use of machine translation.

    Description

    As part of an initiative to introduce novel translation technologies and professional practices starting from the undergraduate level, we conducted a case study with 19 University of Vienna students using speech-enabled PEMT - i.e. a combination of speech synthesis and PEMT. We contend that speech-enabled PEMT mitigates some challenges associated with “traditional”, silent PEMT. In this presentation, we report on the students’ performance and evolving attitudes during the English into German PEMT task in four different working conditions (in silence; with speech synthesis for the source text segments; with speech synthesis for the target text segments; and with speech synthesis for both source and target text segments). Using these results, we discuss the benefits and drawbacks of exposing students to novel technologies and practices such as synthetic voices and PEMT early, and the role these interactions can play in translator training.
