🔥 New publication out! My HCAMT work is now published in Tradumàtica.

What if “better MT” didn’t only mean bigger models, but "better human–AI interaction"?

We compare traditional vs interactive post-editing in a longitudinal study with 11 professional legal translators.

I can highly recommend taking this opportunity to get some funding for parts of your research projects!
Last year, it helped me realize collecting data in the field, that is at translators’ workplaces. I can’t thank EAMT enough for their support!
The EAMT "sponsorship of activities - students' edition" is back!

Project proposals by undergraduates, postgraduates and PhD students in machine translation are more than welcome. You can read the content of the call here: eamt.org/2025/11/25/e...
