Common Issues with Machine Translation (Automatic Translation) Implementation

 

Cost-effectiveness is unknown

I am worried about whether it will lead to improved productivity and reduced workload and costs.

Want to feel the effects quickly

I want to actually run the project and confirm the effectiveness of improvements.

I don't know where to start
from

Workflow design, guideline development... I don't know how to do it.

 

For such challenges, we propose evaluation of machine translation (automatic translation).
There are various products for introducing and operating machine translation systems (machine translation engines), with costs ranging from tens of thousands to millions of yen, and the functions and quality also vary greatly depending on the product.
Human Science, leveraging our experience in introducing and operating machine translation projects for over 10 years, will propose the most suitable engine for your translation workflow from a neutral standpoint.

 

 

Benefits of Conducting Machine Translation Evaluation

Reduce the risk of implementation failure

We will assess the cost-effectiveness through engine quality evaluation and effectiveness measurement reports before full implementation.

Easily approved within the company

Before full implementation, it is important to clarify the implementation cost and cost reduction rate, and to obtain internal agreement smoothly.

 

・Comparison and verification of machine translation engine quality
・Verification of workflow
・Cost-effectiveness estimation based on simple evaluation project operation
This allows for the creation of specific action plans and realistic operational processes, making internal consensus building and approval processes smoother.

 

Process for Machine Translation Evaluation and Engine Selection

Evaluation of Human Science's Machine Translation (Automatic Translation) will conduct effectiveness measurement and actual operation design in about one month.

There are three verification engines. You can confirm the ROI (return on investment) before introducing machine translation and reduce the risk of excessive investment.

Achievements

NIDEK CO., LTD.
Ophthalmic Medical Equipment
Instruction Manual

Introduced machine translation to reduce translation costs and shorten lead times for 5 languages. Handles everything from corpus maintenance and engine operation to post-editing. Reduces customer burden.

Foreign IT Manufacturer
Support Content

Failed in the past with MT implementation. Successfully transitioned from manual translation to MT translation by selecting the optimal engine through implementation support. Reduced costs and lead time for Japanese-English translation.

Domestic Electrical Manufacturer
(Listed on the First Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange)
Web Manual, FAQ

With advice from a neutral standpoint, not as an MT engine manufacturer, it is possible to increase productivity with MT and reduce costs and lead times for expansion into 25 countries overseas.

Upcoming Seminars

We hold free open seminars and webinars on the theme of machine translation (automatic translation) every other month.
