This workshop is part of the AMTA 2020 virtual conference, October 6-10, 2020.
Machine Translation is here to stay. For many years, MT has seen advances in the quality of output, the number of users, language pair and domain coverage, as well as the number of enterprises investing in MT. MT is now an integral part of most CAT tools and post-editing is a de facto task required from language professionals in many domains. The introduction and wide-scale adoption of Neural MT has boosted this even more. Languages and domains that were not supported previously are now serious contenders for MT, at least for gisting, if not for more. As MT becomes more and more mainstream, an increasing number of people are interacting with it, for a variety of purposes, even beyond the commercial language industry. The 2020 AMTA conference is therefore an excellent moment in time to take stock of the nature of this interaction, the impact to date and the potential impact into the future.
The workshop will be held virtually using a powerful collaboration platform. It will feature invited talks by Geza Kovacs (Lilt) and Rhett Whitaker (Amplexor), as well as oral presentations of ongoing research work.
