CALL FOR PAPERS
The 14th Annual Meeting of the European Association for Machine Translation will be held in Saint-Raphaël, France, 27-28 May 2010. This year, the central theme of the conference is:
Machine Translation -
a useful tool to enhance communication or an overrated gimmick?
The conference will bring together scientists, developers and users of machine translation and other tools for multilingual processing. Cutting-edge research and demonstrations from leading academic, business and government organizations will showcase the latest results. During the conference there will be numerous
sessions including research papers, reports on users' experiences, discussions of policy issues, invited talks and panel discussions. These wide-ranging activities in the machine translation will allow participants from research, business and government to get together to explore how to use machine translation technology to conquer language barriers and overcome the digital divide.
The EAMT cordially invites you all - researchers, developers, providers, users, and observers - to EAMT 2010, to contribute to and witness ongoing efforts in developing and using machine translation technology and tools for translation support.
There will be two categories of papers:
(R) Research papers: Submissions are invited for reports of significant research results in any aspect of machine translation and related areas. Such reports should include a substantial evaluation component.
(U) User studies: Submissions are invited for reports on users' experiences with using MT.
