2016 EAMT Best Thesis Award
The European Association for Machine Translation (EAMT, http://www.eamt.org)
is an organization that serves the growing community of people interested
in MT and translation tools, including users, developers, and researchers
of this increasingly viable technology.
The EAMT invites entries for its fifth EAMT Best Thesis Award for a PhD or
equivalent thesis on a topic related to machine translation.
Eligibility
Researchers who
-
have completed a PhD (or equivalent) thesis on a relevant topic in a
European, Northern African or Middle Eastern institution within calendar
year 2015 and
-
have not previously won another international award for that thesis, are
invited to submit their theses to the EAMT for consideration.
Panel
The submissions will be judged by a panel of experts who will be
specifically appointed as part of the EAMT 2016 programme committee and
which will be ratified by the Executive Board of the EAMT.
Selection criteria
Each thesis will be judged according to how challenging the problem was, to
how relevant the results are for machine translation as a field, and to the
strength of their impact in terms of scientific publications.
Scope
The scope of the thesis need not be confined to a technical area, and
applications are also invited from students who carried out their research
into commercial and management aspects of machine translation.
Possible areas of research include:
-
development of machine translation or advanced computer-assisted
translation : software and resources
-
machine translation for less-resourced languages
-
the use of these systems in professional environments (freelance
translators, translation agencies, localisation, etc.)
-
the increasing impact of machine translation on non-professional
Internet users and its impact in communications, social networking, etc.
-
spoken language translation
-
the integration of machine translation and translation memory systems
-
the integration of machine translation software in larger IT applications
-
the evaluation of machine translation systems in real tasks such as
those above
-
the cross-fertilisation between machine translation and other language
technologies
Prize
The winner will be announced at the same time as accepted papers for the
19th Annual Conference of the European Association for Machine Translation
EAMT 2016 (Riga, Latvia, May 30-June 1 2016), and will receive a prize of
?500, together with an inscribed certificate. The recipient of the award
will be required to briefly present their research at EAMT 2015. In order
to facilitate this, the EAMT will waive the winner's registration costs,
and will make available a travel bursary of ?200 to enable the recipient of
the award to attend the said conference. The prize includes complmentary
membership in the EAMT for 2016 and 2017.
Submission
Candidates will submit using EasyChair:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=eamt2016, a single PDF file
containing, in this order:
-
a 2-page summary of your thesis in English, containing:
-
your full contact details,
-
the name and contact details of your supervisor(s),
-
a copy of your CV in English (at most one page, plus a complete list of
publications directly related to the thesis)
-
an electronic copy of your thesis
-
optionally, an appendix with any other relevant information on the thesis
By submitting their work, authors
-
agree that, in case they are granted the award, any subsequently
published version of the thesis should carry the citation "Winner of the
2015 European Association for Machine Translation Best Thesis Award" and
-
acknowledge the right of the EAMT to publicize the granting of the award.
Closing date
The closing date for submissions will be the same as the deadline for
research papers at EAMT 2016: March 25th, 2016

Hello,
Can you please help me with the following error?
When I run the Tuning process with the following command ((nohup nice ~/mosesdecoder/scripts/training/mert-moses.pl ~/corpus/news-test2008.true.fr ~/corpus/news-test2008.true.en ~/mosesdecoder/bin/moses train/model/moses.ini --mertdir ~/mosesdecoder/bin/ --decoder-flags="-threads 4" &> mert.out)) the process stops immediately after it finishes calculating the best translation with the following exit codes:
Failed to get order of scores from nbestlist 'run1.best100.out': No such file or directory at /home/kjoze/mosesdecoder/scripts/training/mert-moses.pl line 1474.
coring the nbestlist.
exec: /home/kjoze/working/mert-work/extractor.sh
Executing: /home/kjoze/working/mert-work/extractor.sh > extract.out 2> extract.err
Exit code: 1
ERROR: Failed to run '/home/kjoze/working/mert-work/extractor.sh'. at /home/kjoze/mosesdecoder/scripts/training/mert-moses.pl line 1744.
The contents of mert-moses.pl file at line 1474 is:
sub get_order_of_scores_from_nbestlist {
# read the first line and interpret the ||| label: num num num label2: num ||| column in nbestlist
# return the score labels in order
my $fname_or_source = shift;
# print STDERR "Peeking at the beginning of nbestlist to get order of scores: $fname_or_source\n";
1474? open my $fh, $fname_or_source or die "Failed to get order of scores from nbestlist '$fname_or_source': $!";
my $line = <$fh>;
close $fh;
die "Line empty in nbestlist '$fname_or_source'" if !defined $line;
my ($sent, $hypo, $scores, $total) = split /\|\|\|/, $line;
$scores =~ s/^\s*|\s*$//g;
die "No scores in line: $line" if $scores eq "";
my @order = ();
my $label = undef;
my $sparse = 0; # we ignore sparse features here
foreach my $tok (split /\s+/, $scores) {
Please advise. Does changing the news-test2008.true.fr file contents has any influence?
Thank you.
Kind regards,

Hi,
the most straight-forward way is to add it to the phrase table.
You could add it multiple times, if you want it to be given more weight than the regular parallel corpus.

Hello,
I just recently installed Moses and would like to use it as part of my
masters thesis on Domain adaptation for less-resourced Slovenian language. I
was given some domain specific dictionaries for which I need your advice.
Where should I include it? Should I simply paste their contents to the end
of aligned corpora files used to create translation model? Is there another
way to use the dictionaries more efficiently?
Thank you.
Kind regards,
Jo?e Kadivec
