Adap-MT 2020: Low Resource Domain Adaptation for Indic Machine Translation



The focus of this task is to show capability of general domain machine translation when translating into Indic languages (English - Hindi , English - Telugu and Hindi - Telugu) and Low resource domain adaptation of MT systems using (Existing available parallel corpora + small indomain parallel data) for AI and Chemistry Domains.

Goals of the shared task:

  • To investigate the applicability of current MT techniques when translating into Indic Languages
  • To test Translation performance for low-resource, morphologically rich languages
  • To investigate Low resource domain adptation when translating into Indic Languages
  • To create publicly available corpora for machine translation and machine translation evaluation
