Hello everyone! 

The accepted projects have been announced, and I just wanted to email
the list to give an overview of what our students will be working on
over the summer, and who will be mentoring them.

Projects involving improvements to the platform:

* Rule-based finite-state disambiguation
  Hrvoje Peradin 
 (Mentors: Jimmy O'Regan, Tommi Pirinen, Francis Tyers)
    The idea of this project is to make a drop in module for 
    rule-based disambiguation in Apertium that will allow us to write
    longer-distance disambiguation rules. 
  
* Lexicalised-feature transfer 
  Filip Petrovski 
 (Mentors: Francis Tyers, Kevin Unhammer)
    This project plans to make a module for Apertium to handle some 
    difficult, lexically driven transfer problems. For example, definite
    articles, preposition choice and impersonal constructions in Romance
    languages.

* Embeddable lttoolbox
  Mikel Artetxe 
 (Mentors: Jacob Nordfalk, Stephen Tigner, Jimmy O'Regan)
    The idea of this project is to improve the embeddability of the Java
    port of Apertium to allow it to be run on mobile telephones.

* Apertium android port
  Arink Verma 
 (Mentors: Stephen Tigner, Jacob Nordfalk, Jimmy O'Regan)
    This project intends to make a nice interface for using Apertium on 
    Android-powered mobile telephones.

Projects involving language pairs:

* Indonesian--Malaysian
  Raymond Susanto 
 (Mentors: Septina Larasati)

* Kazakh--Tatar 
  Ilnar Salimzyanov 
 (Mentors: Jonathan North Washington, Mikel Forcada)

* Turkish--Tatar
  Ramil Aglyamzanov 
 (Mentors: Hèctor Alos i Font, Jonathan North Washington)

* Slovenian--Serbo-Croatian
  Aleš Horvat 
 (Mentors: Jernej Vičič, Hrvoje Peradin)

* Quechua--Spanish
  Vlastimil Rataj
 (Mentors: Trond Trosterud, Petr Homola, Mikel Forcada)  
  
* Turkmen--Turkish
  Yasin Gülbahçe 
 (Mentors: Gianluca Grossi, Francis Tyers)

* Maltese--Arabic
  Marija Fronczak

If any of the students or mentors want to introduce their projects, and
explain what they've done during the application phase, then please go
ahead! 

Regards,

Francis Tyers
