ACCURAT Analysis and Evaluation of Comparable Corpora for Under Resourced Areas of Machine Translation

Coordinator: TILDE SIA (LV)

Lack of sufficient linguistic resources for many languages and domains currently is one of the major obstacle in further advancement of automated translation. The main goal of the ACCURAT research is to find, analyze and evaluate novel methods how comparable corpora can compensate for this shortage of linguistic resources to improve MT quality significantly for under-resourced languages and narrow domains.The ACCURAT project will provide researchers and developers with novel methodology and fully functional model for exploiting comparable corpora to increase translation quality of existing an…

About Seventh Framework Programme (2007–2013)

The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) ran from 2007 to 2013 and was the EU's main research-funding instrument of that period. It mobilised roughly €50 billion across cooperation projects, ERC frontier grants, Marie Curie fellowships, capacity-building actions and Euratom research. FP7 closed to new calls in 2013 but its projects continued for years after under their original grant agreements.

The project runs over approximately 2.5 years from 2010-01-01 to 2012-06-30.
