Apertium hosts numerous MTs of Turkic languages but some of them haven't been worked to completion. By refining these pairs we'd be bringing in these MTs to Apertium repertoire and cover an important ground in Turkic computational linguistics. |

An extensive Uyghur-Turkish machine translator is yet to be done and most of the research in Turkology is done through Turkish, compared to other Turkic languages such as Uyghur. As such, a machine translator would enable those working in Turkology and related fields to study Uyghur texts through Turkish. Furthermore, cultural contact between Turkish and Uyghur populations are increasing with migration and these populations can use this tool to familiarize themselves with each other's culture. |

Why is it that you are interested in Apertium?
I'm a student of linguistics and I recently took up an interest in computational linguistics. I worked with Apertium last year on a Machine Translation project and had a great experience. I'd like to do that again.
Proposal: Bringing 4 language pairs up to release quality
Which of the published tasks are you interested in? What do you plan to do?
My plan is to adopt 4 unreleased language pairs, uig-tur, kyr-tur, tat-tur and uzb-tur. I'll be working to bring them up to release quality, which will involve writing and refining rules for transfer and lexical selection that will result in a valid text in the target language.
Why should google and apertium sponsor it?
Apertium hosts numerous MTs of Turkic languages but some of them haven't been worked to completion. By refining these pairs we'd be bringing in these MTs to Apertium repertoire and cover an important ground in Turkic computational linguistics.

Work Plan
??
Coding Challenge
I will tag 20 sentences for each language pair and write 5 ambiguity rules.
Deliverables
??
WER comparable to other inter-Turkic/Romance pairs. Data for machine-learned disambiguation.
??
Summer Obligations and Commitments
I have no scheduled commitments.
Qualification
I'm a 3rd year student of linguistics at Boğaziçi University. I've taken several compuational linguistics classes as part of my studies. I've already worked with Apertium last year on an MT project between Uyghur and Turkish, which I believe helped me improve my understanding of computational linguistics.
