Why is it I am interested in machine translation? Why is it that I am interested in Apertium?
The speed of information circulation does not allow to spend time on human translation. I am truly interested in formal methods and models because they represent the way any language is constructed (as I see them). Despite some exceptions, in general language is very logical and the main problem is how to find proper systematic description. Apertium is a powerful platform that allows to build impressive rule-based engines. Languages like Latin are well-ordered, particularly their morphology, so it makes rule-based translation very promising.
Which of the published tasks am I interested in? What do I plan to do?
I would like to add Latin-Russian language pair. I plan to do my best to reach higher results, more details are given in Proposal part.
