| MT Summit
X seeks original papers in all aspects of machine translation.
Topics of interests include, but are not limited to: |
- MT for the Web
- Practical MT systems (MT for professionals,
MT for multilingual eCommerce, MT for localization, etc.)
- Translation aids (translation memory,
terminology databases, etc.)
- Translation environments (workflow,
support tools, conversion tools for lexica etc.)
- Methodologies for MT
- Human factors in MT and user interfaces
- Speech and dialogue translation
- Natural language analysis and generation
techniques geared towards MT
- Dictionaries and lexicons for MT
systems
- Text and speech corpora for MT and
knowledge extraction from corpora
- MT evaluation techniques and evaluation
results
- Standards in text and lexicon encoding
for MT
- Cross-lingual information retrieval
- MT and related technologies (information
retrieval, text categorization, text summarization, information
extraction, etc .)
|
| There will
be three categories of papers:
|
(R) Research papers: Submissions
are invited for reports of significant research results
in any aspect of machine translation and related areas.
Such reports should include a substantial evaluative component.
(P) Poster presentations (with/without Demonstration): Submissions
are invited for presentations that are best suited for poster
presentation which is a more interactive form. Submissions
are also invited for reports on the design, implementation,
operation and evaluation of operational and prototype systems.
(U) User studies: Submissions are invited for reports on
users' experiences with applying MT.

| Background
on the MT Summit Conference |
| Phuket, Thailand
may sound like a long way to go to chat with colleagues about
machine translation, but we think you'll find that it is a very
worthwhile trip! |

- The MT Summit brings together all
members of the MT community: users, developers, and researchers
- from around the world.
- The goal of the Summit conferences
is to enable the members of the MT community to learn about
advances in research and product development, as well as
to hear about the ways in which MT is being used successfully
in various environments. Participants share stories of progress
they have fostered, and can assess the status of technology
and deployment internationally.
- One of the most important functions
of the MT Summit is the opportunity it provides for researchers
and developers to hear from users of MT outside of a sales
environment. The presentations by users, as well as the
suggestions and questions that come spontaneously from users
at these events provide insights and inspiration that influence
the direction of research and development.
- You'll meet other users of MT, and
make friends you'll want to keep in touch with for the rest
of your career!
- The MT Summit is the biannual conference
of the International Association for Machine Translation
and its three regional divisions (Association for Machine
Translation in the Americas - AMTA, European Association
for Machine Translation - EAMT, and Asia-Pacific Association
for Machine Translation - AAMT). The location of the conference
rotates between the three regions. The last MT Summit was
held in 2003 in New Orleans, Louisiana. The next MT Summit
will be held in 2007 in Europe.

If it is not feasible to submit a paper
or presentation, we hope that you will still participate in
the workshop and conference, and share ideas informally. We
believe that your participation will benefit you and your organization,
as well as the whole MT community!
