--------------------------------------
Summary: Demo Interface Improvements
Key: JOSHUA-339
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JOSHUA-339
Project: Joshua
Issue Type: Task
Components: core
Reporter: Tommaso Teofili
oshua and Joshua language packs include a web-based demonstration [1] that runs
in a browser and contacts Joshua running as a server. The demo itself could be
a lot prettier. There is also some additional functionality that would be nice
to have:
Add phrase highlighting. For each translation, it would highlight phrasal
translation features as a unit, and link them to the point in the source
sentence.
Add better widgets for setting model weights (e.g., slider bars)
Add better tokenization of the input (a proper sentence-splitter, for example)
Prompt the user for a server connection at page-load time, dimming the screen
until a proper connection is established
Add cookies that would store the last server connected to, and perhaps other
information.
. There are also changes to Joshua that could be made to support fancier
front-end features, such as:
Extend the JSON API to include alignments.
