Tokyo Interest Group in Translation and Translation Process Research

In order to foster research in translation, researchers from CRITT, Tokyo University and the National Institute of Informatics (NII), Tokyo, have initiated an interest group to discuss topics in the wider context of translation, translation process studies and translation automation. The idea is to present research in a small context, to find some overlap and synergy possibilities between researchers and research topics and to develop collaboration effects between interested parties. Meetings are scheduled approximately every third month.

  • A working group during Feb. and March has public meetings on March 3 and March 24, 2016

  • The third meeting took place on Nov. 30, 2015

  • The second took place on September 15, 2015.

  • The first meeting took place on June 2nd, 2015

An initial meeting is scheduled for March 3rd to brainstorm and plan the themes and topics to be elaborated on in the following three weeks. A final meeting is planned for March 24 to present and wrap-up the results of the working group.

The meetings take place at the National Institute of Informatics (Hitotsubashi) http://www.nii.ac.jp/en/about/access/ on:
