2011Q3 Reports: SIGMT

The main activity of the SIG MT was the organization of the 6th Workshop on Statistical Machine Translation, which includes three shared tasks, one for machine translation, one for system combination methods, and one for evaluation metrics. We doubled the number of submitted papers to the workshop from 24 to 48.

Reviewing of papers and staging of the workshop has not yet happened. It is co-hosted with EMNLP, July 30-31.
