The Computer Science Institute of the University of Le Mans (LIUM) has an opening for a postdoc position in the field of Statistical Machine Translation. The successful candidate will work on a project on Machine Translation Enhanced Computer Assisted Translation (MATECAT), funded by the European Commission.
Computer assisted translation tools are currently the dominant technology in the translation and localization market. Recent achievements by the statistical MT approach have raised new expectations in the translation industry. So far, statistical MT has focused on providing ready-to-use translations, rather than outputs that minimize the effort of a human translator. The goal of the Matecat project is to effectively integrate statistical MT within the translation workflow, to make MT aware of its use, to self-tune to the task, to learn from the user feedback, and to be informative. We are looking for an excellent candidate with proven experience in the fields of statistical machine translation, NLP or machine learning. Knowledge of Moses is an advantage. Detailed information on our ongoing research activities and other projects can be found at http://www-lium.univ-lemans.fr/~schwenk. Applications and inquiries should be sent to Holger Schwenk (holger.schw...@lium.univ-lemans.fr). Salaries start at 2500 Euros net per month, including health care and other social benefits. The position is immediately available and is open until filled. _______________________________________________ Moses-support mailing list Moses-support@mit.edu http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/moses-support
