"Learn from Examples! Seminar on Utilizing Japanese-English Machine Translation" will be held.

 

<前回のセミナーの様子>

 

Machine translation (automatic translation/MT) is being introduced in domestic companies, mainly in European languages. However, in Japanese to English translation, due to differences in grammar structure, the quality of machine translation has not yet reached a sufficient level, and many companies may find it difficult to put it into practical use.

However, even in Japanese-English machine translation, it is possible to utilize machine translation sufficiently depending on the conditions of the project and the workflow to be constructed.

In this seminar, we will introduce case studies that our company has worked on and delve into specific points for utilizing Japanese-English machine translation in the translation of technical documents and instruction manuals.

We will also introduce successful case studies of implementing Japanese-English machine translation, which have resulted in cost reduction and shortened translation periods.

・I want to shorten the lead time for Japanese-English translation

・I want to reduce the cost of Japanese-English translation

・I want to quickly expand internal documents into English

・I want to use machine translation for Japanese-English translation, but I don't know how to do it

- I don't know if machine translation can be used for our documents.

・I want to know the points for selecting a machine translation engine for Japanese to English translation.

If you have any questions or concerns, please join us!
