Eneko AGIRRE and Nora ARANBERRI, Ixa Group from University of the Basque Country, together with Deyi Xiong (Soochow University), Kevin Duh (Johns Hopkins University), and HoufengWang (Peking University), are the organizers of the 2nd Workshop on Semantics-Driven Machine Translation (SedMT) San Diego, California, USA; June 16, 2016 (co-located with NAACL).
This workshop seeks to build on the success of its precursor S2MT 2015, which was held in conjunction with ACL 2015 in Beijing. This workshop will continue efforts of promoting the shift of interest from syntax to semantics in machine translation, exploring new horizons and cultivating ideas of cutting-edge models and algorithms for semantic machine translation.
QTLeap project Best Paper Award
This year SedMT will award a best paper award among papers which advance MT using lexical emantics and deep language processing.ward is sponsored by the European Union QTLeap project.
IXA talde is a partner in QTLeap (Quality Translation by Deep Language Engineering Approaches), a project that is run by an European consortium with other seven partners: Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, Charles University in Prague, German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence, Higher Functions Lda., Humboldt University in Berlin, University of the Basque Country, University of Groningen and University of Lisbon.
