Machine translation has become increasingly popular, especially
with the introduction of neural machine translation in major online
translation systems. However, despite the rapid advances in machine
translation, the role of a human translator remains crucial. As
illustrated by the chapters in this book, man-machine interaction
is essential in machine translation, localisation, terminology
management, and crowdsourcing translation. In fact, the importance
of a human translator before, during, and after machine processing,
cannot be overemphasised as human intervention is the best way to
ensure the translation quality of machine translation. This volume
explores the role of a human translator in machine translation from
various perspectives, affording a comprehensive look at this
topical research area. This book is essential reading for anyone
involved in translation studies, machine translation or interested
in translation technology.
