Translationese in Russian Literary Texts

no code implementations EMNLP (LaTeCHCLfL, CLFL, LaTeCH) 2021 Maria Kunilovskaya, Ekaterina Lapshinova-Koltunski, Ruslan Mitkov

We expect that literary translations from typologically distant languages should exhibit more translationese, and the fingerprints of individual source languages (and their families) are traceable in translations.

Analysing Coreference in Transformer Outputs

no code implementations WS 2019 Ekaterina Lapshinova-Koltunski, Cristina España-Bonet, Josef van Genabith

We analyse coreference phenomena in three neural machine translation systems trained with different data settings with or without access to explicit intra- and cross-sentential anaphoric information.

Translationese Features as Indicators of Quality in English-Russian Human Translation

no code implementations RANLP 2019 Maria Kunilovskaya, Ekaterina Lapshinova-Koltunski

We use a range of morpho-syntactic features inspired by research in register studies (e. g. Biber, 1995; Neumann, 2013) and translation studies (e. g. Ilisei et al., 2010; Zanettin, 2013; Kunilovskaya and Kutuzov, 2018) to reveal the association between translationese and human translation quality.

Discovery of Discourse-Related Language Contrasts through Alignment Discrepancies in English-German Translation

no code implementations WS 2017 Ekaterina Lapshinova-Koltunski, Christian Hardmeier

In this paper, we analyse alignment discrepancies for discourse structures in English-German parallel data {--} sentence pairs, in which discourse structures in target or source texts have no alignment in the corresponding parallel sentences.
