Traducción Automática
Comenzamos a investigar en Traducción Automática en el año 2000 y siguiendo los paradigmas que se han ido desarrollando en el área: primero basado en reglas (RBMT), luego estadístico (SMT) y actualmente neuronal (NMT). Nos hemos centrado principalmente en la traducción desde y hacia el euskera, ya que, además de su interés comercial en nuestro país, es un reto importante por varias razones: la complejidad de la morfología vasca, el orden libre de los componentes de las oraciones, y la escasez...Leer Más
