InDeep × NMT:Empowering Human Translators via Interpretable Neural Machine Translation

Neural machine translation (NMT) systems are nowadays essential components of professional translation workflows. Consequently, human translators are increasingly working as post-editors for machine-translated content. The NWO-funded InDeep project aims to empower users of Deep Learning models of text, speech, and music by improving their ability to interact with such models and interpret their behaviors. In the specific context of translation, we aim at developing new tools and methodologies to improve prediction attribution, error analysis, and controllable generation for NMT systems. These advances will be evaluated through field studies involving professional translators to assess gains in efficiency and overall enjoyability of the post-editing process
