Summary
WMT14 is the ninth edition of an annual shared-task campaign that benchmarks machine translation and the methods used to evaluate it. It had four tasks: news translation, quality estimation, a new medical translation task, and a metrics task, which is reported in a separate paper. The news task covered ten directions between English and Czech, French, German, Hindi and Russian. Hindi replaced Spanish to add a distant, low-resource language pair. The organizers rebuilt the test sets so that every sentence was originally written in either English or the paired language, not in some third language. The goal was to reduce translationese artifacts. Participants received parallel and monolingual training data. The organizers then scored 143 submissions from 23 institutions, plus anonymized online and commercial systems, with automatic metrics. Participating researchers also ranked the outputs by hand, and a new ranking method reached reliable results with fewer judgments. In the medical task, the systems were also tested inside a cross-lingual information retrieval setup. The released data and human judgments became a widely reused MT benchmark.
Key points
- 143 news-translation systems came from 23 institutions. The organizers added 4 commercial and 4 online systems in anonymized form and treated them as unconstrained.
- Each English–X test set has about 3000 sentences: about 1500 written originally in English and 1500 in the other language. Hindi–English has 2507. Capita and Yandex did the professional translations.
- Training resources included Europarl, News Commentary, Common Crawl, the UN corpus, the 10^9 French–English corpus, CzEng, the Yandex 1M Russian–English corpus, Wiki Headlines, and the new Hindi–English corpus (Bojar et al., 2014).
- Quality estimation had four subtasks: 1–3 Likert scores, edit percentage, post-editing time, and word-level error labels. It drew 57 entries from 10 teams on English–Spanish and English–German data in both directions.
- Medical task: UEDIN led summary translation (DE–EN, EN–CS, EN–FR). In the IR evaluation on CLEF 2013 eHealth, UEDIN's query translations retrieved nearly as well as the reference translations did.
