Pre-Conference Session
Quality Estimation Workshop
04 October 2023, 13:00 to 17:00
Little America Hotel, Salt Lake City (USA)
The Quality Estimation Workshop is a joint initiative between the main providers of Quality Estimation or Quality Prediction, TAUS and ModelFront. Participants in this workshop will learn firsthand from technical leaders in these companies and their customers about the sustainable approach and real-world implementations.
Most human translation effort is wasted on perfectly good machine translations. As enterprises adopted MT, and MT quality improved, professional human translators started leaving most of the segments - up to 90% - unedited. It’s a good problem to have - if all those perfectly good segments could somehow be separated from those that do need a human touch, like exact matches are separated from fuzzy matches.
Those looking to increase PE volume or PE save time and costs, whether localization managers or technology managers at enterprises, or LSPs.
Localization managers in enterprises in any phase of their MT First strategy.
Technology providers who want to upgrade their offering with a QE implementation.
Anyone interested in building an AI-driven quality control step into their workflows.
