Funded Activity Summary

Exploiting Context in Multilingual Understanding and Generation. Automatic translation technologies produce incoherent and incorrect outputs in critical areas, such as health, finance, and law. This is due to translating sentences independently, without regard to the global extra-sentential context and rich linguistic structures inherent in the wider document context. This project aims to exploit global linguistic structures, capitalising on recent advances in deep neural networks, in order to generate coherent and faithful text. Expected outcome include next-generation computational technologies for language understanding and generation. This should significantly benefit document-based language technologies and increase their applications in a range of cultural, industrial, and health settings.
