Primary goals[edit]

  • A production-ready release of kaz-kir
    • Translates kaz→kir and kir→kaz with consistently <10% WER
    • Trimmed coverage for kaz and kir ≥90%
  • A production-ready release of tur-kir
    • Translates tur→kir and kir→tur with consistently <20% WER
    • Trimmed coverage for tur and kir ≥85%
  • A stable release of uzb-tur
    • Translates tur→uzb and uzb→tur with consistently <25% WER
    • Trimmed coverage for tur and uzb ≥80%
  • While bidix size is not built into the goals, the trimmed coverage numbers can be seen as a more relevant proxy for the same basic idea.
