The 15 International Workshop on Spoken Language Translation (IWSLT 2018
<http://www.iwslt.org/>)
29-30 October 2018, Bruges (Belgium)
You are kindly invited to consider participating in our evaluation campaign
and/or submitting a scientific paper!
Deadlines:
- Submissions of evaluation runs: 31 August 2018
- Submissions of scientific papers: 31 August 2018
Evaluation Campaign Tasks:
- Low resource Machine Translation from Basque to English
Given the scarcity of available parallel data, the challenge is how to
optimally leverage data from
other translation directions, e.g. Basque-Spanish, Spanish-English, etc.,
knowing that:
"Linguistically, Basque is unrelated to the other languages of Europe
and, as a language isolate <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_isolate>, to
any
other known living languages… Basque has adopted a good deal of its
vocabulary from the Romance
languages” (from Wikipedia)
- Speech Translation from English to German
The challenge of this year is to train neural systems directly from source
speech to target text.
For this exercise, we provide a parallel corpus of TED Talks of English audio
and German text, as well
as a baseline implementation of a traditional speech recognition + machine
translation pipeline as a
Docker container.
IWSLT 2018 will be colocated with EMNLP and WMT.
Please, check out our website for all the details: www.iwslt.org
