1. Final Thoughts Andy Way DCU MT Workshop 23—34 July 2008

2. Ongoing vs. New Research Ringfence a.s.a.p. ongoing research so as to facilitate new researchers (I have lots of questions for each of you individually …)

3. Ongoing vs. New Research Ringfence a.s.a.p. ongoing research so as to facilitate new researchers (I have lots of questions for each of you individually …) Joint projects between current/new researchers, either:

4. Ongoing vs. New Research Ringfence a.s.a.p. ongoing research so as to facilitate new researchers (I have lots of questions for each of you individually …) Joint projects between current/new researchers, either: –Small, self-contained projects

5. Ongoing vs. New Research Ringfence a.s.a.p. ongoing research so as to facilitate new researchers (I have lots of questions for each of you individually …) Joint projects between current/new researchers, either: –Small, self-contained projects –Large group projects

6. Ongoing vs. New Research Ringfence a.s.a.p. ongoing research so as to facilitate new researchers (I have lots of questions for each of you individually …) Joint projects between current/new researchers, either: –Small, self-contained projects –Large group projects –What type of phrases can each of our methods derive that Giza++ will never get?

7. Ongoing vs. New Research Ringfence a.s.a.p. ongoing research so as to facilitate new researchers (I have lots of questions for each of you individually …) Joint projects between current/new researchers, either: –Small, self-contained projects –Large group projects –What type of phrases can each of our methods derive that Giza++ will never get? –Complete system combination vs. multiple component integration (e.g. decoders, chunkers etc.)

8. Resources Making our own stuff available –Data (e.g. Sara, John etc.) –Software (e.g. Ventzi, MaTrEx etc.)

9. Resources Making our own stuff available –Data (e.g. Sara, John etc.) –Software (e.g. Ventzi, MaTrEx etc.) What else do we need? –Data (LDC, ELDA …) –Systems (Hiero, Stat-XFer etc.), segmenters etc. –Gold Standards …

19. The Last Word We’ve been doing great MT research for some time now

20. The Last Word We’ve been doing great MT research for some time now It’s clear that we’ll do even more with the new input, i.e. it’s a good time to be on the DCU MT team …

21. The Last Word We’ve been doing great MT research for some time now It’s clear that we’ll do even more with the new input, i.e. it’s a good time to be on the DCU MT team … … but we’ve had fun doing it, and that can’t be allowed to change!
