Redefining Translation Quality: From User Data to Business Intelligence

Translation quality is one of the key concepts in the translation industry today. Measuring and tracking translation quality is essential for all players of the industry. More and more translation vendors offer different types and levels of quality resulting in dynamic pricing. Translation buyers are seeking to know whether their customized Machine Translation (MT) engine is improving and they would like to compare different MT providers. Finally, translators need to set the threshold of TM/MT matches at the most optimal levels. These are just a few examples where translation quality becomes central and increasingly tuned to user satisfaction.

The aim of this eBook is to redefine the way we look at translation quality and evaluate translations. We are not trying to achieve this by a collection of scientific papers or by heavy argumentation. What we offer is a selection of short articles in reflectional style on various aspects of the quality of translations.
