NLP for translation and interpreting applications (NLP4TIA) Varna, Bulgaria, 7/8 September 2023 https://nlp4tia.web.uah.es/ Last Call for Papers – Extended Deadline In the last two decades, we have been able to witness a technological turn in translation and interpreting studies with Natural Language Processing (NLP) and deep learning playing more and more prominent part. There is already a growing number of NLP applications that are used to support the work of translators and interpreters. In addition, the recent advances in (and latest models of) deep learning have powered the further development and success of high performing Neural Machine Translation (NMT) systems. Translation technology has revolutionised the translation profession and nowadays most professional translators employ tools such as translation memory (TM) systems in their daily work. Latest advances of Neural Machine Translation (NMT) have resulted in NMT not only becoming an integral part of most state-of-the art TM tools but also typical for the translation workflow of many companies, organisations and freelance translators. Although translation has benefited more from technological advances, interpreting has also experienced a technological turn. However, it has not been until some years ago that soft technology has permeated interpreting practice and research. Computer assisted translation, MT and NLP tools have been adapted to be used by interpreters. In addition, corpus-based studies have also underpinned dialogue interpreting. The increasing interest in NLP, MT and the automation of processes has brought us to multidisciplinary projects that deal with the development of models for automated oral communication. Machine interpreting has already been developed and is being improved, focusing on speed and accuracy matters. Either domain-specific (commercial, military, humanitarian) or general (Skype Translator), there is still a long way to go to render machine interpreting more human-like. Many of the above recent developments have to do with the employment of Natural Language Processing tools and resources to support the work of translators and interpreters. This workshop is expected to discuss the growing importance of NLP in different translation and interpreting scenarios. Workshop topics The workshop invites submissions reporting original unpublished work on topics including but not limited to: * NLP and MT for under-resourced languages; * Translation Memory systems; * NLP and MT for translation memory systems; * NLP for CAT and CAI tools; * Integration of NLP tools in remote interpreting platforms; * NLP for dialogue interpreting; * Development of NLP based applications for communication in public service settings (healthcare, education, law, emergency services); * Corpus-based studies applied to translation and interpreting.; * Machine translation and machine interpreting; * Resources for translation and machine translation; * Resources for interpreting and interpreting technology application; * Quality estimation of human and machine translation; * Post-editing strategies and tools; * Automatic post-editing of MT; * NLP and MT for subtitling. * Technology acceptance by interpreters and translations; * Machine Translation and translation tools for literary texts; * Evaluation of machine translation and translation and interpreting tools in general; * The impact of the technological turn in translation and interpreting; * Cognitive effort and eye-tracking experiments in translation and interpreting; * Development of models for research and practice of translation and interpreting; * Multidisciplinary cooperation in NLP applied to translation and interpreting.
