AMTA 2020 Workshop on the Impact of Machine Translation (iMpacT 2020)

September 8, 2020

This workshop is part of AMTA 2020, to be held in Orlando, Florida, September 
8-12, 2020.

Machine Translation is here to stay. For many years, MT has seen advances in 
the quality of output, the number of users, language pair and domain coverage, 
as well as the number of enterprises investing in MT. MT is now an integral 
part of most CAT tools and post-editing is a de facto task required from 
language professionals in many domains. The introduction and wide-scale 
adoption of NMT has boosted this even more. Languages and domains that were not 
supported previously are now serious contenders for MT, at least for gisting, 
if not for more. As MT becomes more and more mainstream, an increasing number 
of people are interacting with it, for a variety of purposes, even beyond the 
commercial language industry. The 2020 AMTA conference is therefore an 
excellent moment in time to take stock of the nature of this interaction, the 
impact to date and the potential impact into the future.

The workshop will feature invited talks (to be announced) as well as oral 
presentations of ongoing research work.
