Human Factor in Machine Translation

<p>Machine translation has become increasingly popular especially with the introduction of neural machine translation in major online translation systems. 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 as human intervention is the best way to ensure the translation quality of machine translation. This 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. </p>
