Shantipriya Parida, Ondřej Bojar


Abstract
This paper presents the findings of the English-to-Indic Multimodal Translation shared task from the Workshop on Asian Translation (WAT2025). The task featured three tracks: text-only translation, image captioning, and multimodal translation across four low-resource Indic languages: Hindi, Bengali, Malayalam, and Odia. Three teams participated, submitting systems that achieved competitive performance, with BLEU scores ranging from 40.1 to 64.3 across different language pairs and tracks.
