*****Posted by List Administrator on behalf of Maxim Khalilov************ TAUS announces the launch of the Developing Talent Initiative, a collaborative project with universities around the world.
This project allows students from all over the world to build MT engines using domain specific data from TAUS, supervised by the TAUS Labs team and an expert Advisory Committee. In the process, students gain a greater understanding of commercial requirements while industry also benefits from the experimentation undertaken by some of the brightest young computational linguists globally. The results are made publicly available on the TAUS site, helping to share learnings and inspire others. At launch fourteen universities in Asia, Europe and the Americas are taking part in the TAUS Developing Talent Initiative. Post-graduate students from these universities will take part in the process of data preparation, engines training/optimization/testing and translation quality evaluation. The TAUS Dynamic Quality Framework, the industry benchmark, will be used for quality evaluation and benchmarking of the MT engines.
