Overview
In recent years, the need to translate the rapidly increasing amount of content quickly and at low cost has drawn attention to the potential of machine translation in the field of industrial translation.

It is said that machine translation (MT) has reached a certain level of practicality among European languages that share common grammatical structures and vocabulary, and its implementation is already progressing overseas. In the Japanese translation market, it is believed that in the future, the key will not be whether to "use MT" but rather "how to effectively utilize it."

In this presentation, we will introduce how companies considering the introduction of MT can improve quality and productivity by effectively mastering MT through an effective translation process.

* MT (Machine Translation) refers to the technology that performs translation mechanically through computer programs.
Key Points of the Presentation
・Selection and training of MT engines
・Setting MT translation quality standards (establishing standards tailored to the project)
・Pre-editing to improve MT translation quality
・Effects of pre-editing on quality and productivity improvement
