SIGMT Annual Report, July 2009
SIGMT was founded early 2009 as ACL's special interest group on machine translation. Currently, the main activity of SIGMT is to co-ordinate workshops related to machine translation at ACL conferences.
In the past, there have been two successful workshop series:
- WMT (Workshop on Statistical Machine Translations) since 2006, and
- SSST (Workshop on Syntax and Structure in Statistical Translation) since 2007
We currently expect these workshops also to take place in 2010. The SIG also aims to co-ordinate with other conferences and meetings on machine translation (AMTA, MT Summit, MT Marathon, ...).
The founding president is Philipp Koehn, reginal officers are Chris Callison-Burch (Americas), Marcello Federico (Europe), and Eiichiro Sumita (Asia). Secretary is David Chiang.
