Project Summary

TransType2 - Computer Assisted Translation, is an RTD project funded by the European Commission under the IST Programme (IST-2001-32091).

The aim of TT2 is to develop a Computer-Assisted Translation (CAT) system that will help solve a very pressing social problem: how to meet the growing demand for high-quality translation. The innovative solution proposed by TT2 is to embed a data driven Machine Translation (MT) engine within an interactive translation environment. In this way, the system combines the best of two paradigms: the CAT paradigm, in which the human translator ensures high-quality output; and the MT paradigm, in which the machine ensures significant productivity gains.
