Hi, This was due for long time. Of late, I have been mainly focusing on improving the performance of "po_anubadok" i.e. the machine translator for PO(T) files. It is available from "http://www.imsc.res.in/~golam/anubadok/". You may also try Google for Anubadok.
Compared to my last status report on Anubadok, the current version has modest improvements. It can now deal with shortcuts gracefully. If you prefer to keep English letter itself as shortcut then post-translation editing job will be even less. In the current version second level of formality (Ex. "tumi koro" apart from "Aapni korun") has been (partially) implemented. Currently, it is effective only while using "po_anubadok". The is mainly aimed towards translating instructions those are "from user to computer". So formality level will go up and down automatically depending on the sentence structure but do expect some wrong jumps :-) Apart from above, "po_anubadok" can now also handle routine (boring! ) tasks like header info, translators info modification. Several new rules of Sondhi has been implemented and several known bugs have been fixed. Its E2B dict word counts now stands above 7k. This time a BIG thanks to me (Progga hasn't been able to beat me this time :-)) ) A tagger (as a possible alternative of tree-tagger but with a GPL compatible licence) is ready for quite sometime. However, for no reason I am yet to put it up :-(. Anubadok now supports both these taggers out-of-the-box. A crucial module that Anubadok continues to lack is what split a compound sentences into simpler sentences at English level. I need to study related computational linguistic stuffs for that. I hope to do that after I submit my PhD thesis at the end of April. Then it will replace the current one, based on thumb-rules!! Also, I need to improve documentations. So feel free to use and give feedback on "po_anubadok"! Cheers, Golam ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
