AMTA 2018 | Call for Workshop Proposals
Contact: Steve Richardson (workshops@amtaweb.org)
AMTA workshops are intended to provide the opportunity for MT-related communities of interest to spend time together advancing the state of the art, both in ideas and practices, in their area of endeavor. We are particularly interested in submissions related to commercialization of MT and/or its use by professional translators. However, any themes connected to MT research, development, deployment, use, and evaluation are welcome. Topics for past workshops have included MT post-editing, CAT tools, treatment of Semitic languages, translation of patents and scientific literature, collaborative translation, lexical resources, quality metrics for MT, and the impact of MT research on the translation industry.
