Bosnian-Croatian-Montenegrin-Serbian and Slovenian

Description about this project will be added soon.

Work plan

This is a draft workplan for development of the Serbo-Croatian and Slovenian translator.

• Trimmed coverage means the coverage of both of the morphological analysers after being trimmed according to the bilingual dictionary of the pair, that is, only containing stems which are also in the bilingual dictionary.
• Testvoc for a category means that the category is testvoc clean, in both translation directions.
• Evaluation is taking $n$ words and performing an evaluation for post-edition word error rate (WER). The output for those $n$ words should be clean.

Week	Dates	Trimmed coverage	Reached	Testvoc	Evaluation	Notes
0	23/04—21/05	45%		<abbr> <ij>	500 words	Preliminary evaluation. Translate the story in both directions with total coverage and without diagnostics. Get a baseline WER. Work on disambiguation, the morphological ambiguities in the story should be resolved.
1	21/05—27/05	50%		<cnjcoo> <cnjadv> <cnjsub> <pr>	-	Conjunctions and prepositions should be clean. Verbs should be tagged for transitivity.
