Produktbeschreibung
This is the first volume that brings together research and practice from academic and industry settings and a combination of human and machine translation evaluation. Its comprehensive collection of papers by leading experts in human and machine translation quality and evaluation who situate current developments and chart future trends fills a clear gap in the literature. This is critical to the successful integration of translation technologies in the industry today, where the lines between human and machine are becoming increasingly blurred by technology: this affects the whole translation landscape, from students and trainers to project managers and professionals, including in-house and freelance translators, as well as, of course, translation scholars and researchers.

The editors have broad experience in translation quality evaluation research, including investigations into professional practice with qualitative and quantitative studies, and the contributors are leading experts in their respective fields, providing a unique set of complementary perspectives on human and machine translation quality and evaluation, combining theoretical and applied approaches.

(Sarah Bawa Mason, Machine Translation, Vol. 33, 2019)
"Translation Quality Assessment: From Principles to Practice offers a broad coverage of a number of approaches to human and machine translation quality assessment (TQA) based on a wide range of practices from research, industry and academia. ... this book is a very useful guide for students, researchers and practitioners in the field, including very interesting contributions that can inspire the reader in various directions." (Emmanouela Patiniotaki, The Journal of Specialised Translation, Issue 32, July, 2019)
"This book is nicely presented with each chapter contributing an important aspect of machine translation quality assessment. The focus of this book is on the product of translation, describing scenarios for translation quality assessment and developing applications of translation quality assessment. ... The book embraces dominant methods from different translation scenarios, and provides a comprehensive collection of contributions by international experts in translation quality assessment and human and machine translation evaluation."
