This Action aims at improving the pre-existing neural machine translation toolkit “Marian” to address the needs of CEF eTranslation and to broaden its user base.
This collaborative language tools Action will provide user access to text flagging by adding support for factors to support forced translation. It will also support the automated adaptation facility by adding support for on-the-fly domain adaptation using large translation memories with a well-defined API.
Furthermore, Marian’s documentation will be improved for all levels of users, resolving requirements to submit to ELRC-SHARE and increasing the user base.
To ensure the dissemination of the results, a stakeholder board and a hackathon will be organised. All the results of the activities will be disseminated through open-source software deliverables and engagement with eTranslation.
