| Synopsis: |
Machine translation has become increasingly popular, especially with the introduction of neural machine translation in Google Translate. However, despite the rapid advances in machine translation, the role of a human translator remains crucial. As illustrated by the chapters in this book, man-machine interaction is essential in machine translation, localisation, terminology management, and crowdsourcing translation. In fact, the importance of a human translator before, during, and after machine processing, cannot be overemphasised to ensure the translation quality of machine translation in the future. The volume explores the role of a human translator in machine translation from various perspectives affording a comprehensive look at this topical research area. This book is essential reading for anyone involved in translation studies, machine translation or interested in translation technology. |
