Proceedings of the 15th Biennial Conference of the Association for Machine Translation in the Americas (Volume 2: Users and Providers Track and Government Track)

A growing share of machine translations are approved - untouched - by human translators in post-editing workflows. But they still cost time and money. Now companies are getting human post-editing quality faster and cheaper, by automatically approving the good machine translations - at human accuracy. The approach has evolved, from research papers on machine translation quality estimation, to adoption inside companies like Amazon, Facebook, Microsoft and VMWare, to self-serve cloud APIs like ModelFront. We’ll walk through the motivations, use cases, prerequisites, adopters, providers, integration and ROI.
