Beschreibung
This volume provides a comprehensive introduction to the Translation Process Research Database (TPR-DB), which was compiled by the Centre for Research and Innovation in Translation and Technologies (CRITT). The TPR-DB is a unique resource featuring more than 500 hours of recorded translation process data, augmented with over 200 different rich annotations. Twelve chapters describe the diverse research directions this data can support, including the computational, statistical and psycholinguistic modeling of human translation processes.In the first chapters of this book, the reader is introduced to the CRITT TPR-DB. This is followed by two main parts, the first of which focuses on usability issues and details of implementing interactive machine translation. It also discusses the use of external resources and translator-information interaction. The second part addresses the cognitive and statistical modeling of human translation processes, including co-activation at the lexical, syntactic and discourse levels, translation literality, and various annotation schemata for the data.

His primary research interests are cognitive modelling of the human translation process, human-computer interaction in the context of translation, and the psychology of reading. His previous research includes bilingual memory during translation, the role of shared semantics and syntax during translation, and error detection in reading for translation.------------List of contributing authorsAdriana Pagano is Professor in Translation Studies at the Federal University of Minas Gerais, Brazil, where she directs MA dissertations and doctoral theses in the Graduate Programme in Linguistics and Applied Linguistics and conducts research at the Laboratory for Experimentation in Translation. Her research interests include domain knowledge in translation tasks; expertise and expert knowledge in translation; and quality assessment in translation from an end-user perspective. Ana L. V. Leal is Assistant Professor at Department of Portuguese, University of Macau. She holds a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Évora, Portugal and a Master's Degree in Applied Linguistics from Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. She is the principal investigator in the AuTema-Dis II, AuTema-Syntree and AuTema-PostEd projects with Research Grants of University of Macau.Annegret Sturm received an intermediate diploma in interpreting from the University of Leipzig and her MA in Translation Studies from the University of Geneva. Her main research interests are the role of social cognition in translation and the role of metacognitive proficiency in translation processes. Arlene Koglin is a PhD candidate in Translation Studies at Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (Brazil). She holds a Master's degree in Translation Studies from the Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (Brazil). Her current research and publications focus on post-editing, translation process, metaphor, cognitive effort and eye tracking. Arndt Heilmann is a student of English Studies and Political Sciences in his final Master's semester and a prospective doctoral student at the English Linguistics Department at the RWTH Aachen in Germany. Currently he is employed as a research assistant at the department's eye-tracking laboratory helping to prepare and conduct experiments. Apart from politics, his field of interest is cognitive linguistics and, related to this, translation studies.Arnt Lykke Jakobsen was professor of translation and translation technology at Copenhagen Business School (CBS) until his retirement at the end of 2013. A growing interest in translation processes and methods of exploring them led to his invention of the keylog software program Translog in 1995. In 2005 he established CRITT, the CBS Centre for research and innovation in translation and transl
