Webinar Overview

Historically, MT post-editing has been thought of as brute-force and
mindless correction of terrible MT errors that many translators and
agencies want to avoid at all costs. And with some of the bad MT
solutions and “upload and pray” MT solutions out there, this may in fact
be true. However, with good, responsive MT platforms like Asia Online’s
Language Studio™, MT post-editing can be a dramatically different affair
where work get done faster without compromising final quality – and in
some cases improving quality over a human only approach. It is also
possible for all the stakeholders, the translation agency, translators
and the final customer to all benefit economically from these more
efficient production systems.

In this webinar we will explore the different ways that Asia Online
works together with our customers to ensure that the MT post-editing
experience is positive and results in measurable productivity gains.  We
will describe how a custom MT system evolves and improves in quality
over time within the Language Studio™ platform and how this impacts MT
post-editing.

Joining Asia Online’s Dion Wiggins and Kirti Vashee is Scott Bass, CEO
of Advanced Language Translation, who will present about their
real-world experience with Language Studio™ custom MT engines, how they
evolved in quality and productivity, and the resulting expansion and new
business relationships.

Key topics covered include:
 
Best practices in measuring quality and productivity

Continuous improvement of custom MT engines

A simple 4-step approach to measuring MT quality and determining fair
post-editing rates

Fair compensation for post editing MT
