Following the success of the previous workshops on Patent and Scientific 
Literature Translation, we are organizing the 9th Workshop on Patent and 
Scientific Literature Translation (PSLT 2021) held in conjunction with MT 
Summit 2021.
Due to continuing COVID restrictions on travel, we have decided to hold PSLT 
2021 online on 16 August, 2021.
Machine translation of patent information  and different types of scientific 
literature is in high demand, while there still remain open problems to make 
the machine translation results more sophisticated. The workshop covers a wide 
range of topics related to the unique features of scientific literature 
including patents, scientific papers, and technical reports. The workshop, 
which consists of invited talks and special session will be an opportunity for 
researchers and practitioners to get together and exchange their ideas and 
experiences.

* Invited Speakers
  We will have the following invited speakers at PSLT 2021:
  - Keisuke Aizawa (Japan Patent Office)
