This is a document-aligned parallel corpus of English and Czech abstracts of scientific papers published by authors from the Institute of Formal and Applied Linguistics, Charles University in Prague, as reported in the institute's system Biblio. For each publication, the authors are obliged to provide both the original abstract in Czech or English, and its translation into English or Czech, respectively. No filtering was performed, except for removing entries missing the Czech or English abstract, and replacing newline and tabulator characters by spaces.
This is a parallel corpus of Czech and mostly English abstracts of scientific papers and presentations published by authors from the Institute of Formal and Applied Linguistics, Charles University in Prague. For each publication record, the authors are obliged to provide both the original abstract (in Czech or English), and its translation (English or Czech) in the internal Biblio system. The data was filtered for duplicates and missing entries, ensuring that every record is bilingual. Additionally, records of published papers which are indexed by SemanticScholar contain the respective link. The dataset was created from September 2022 image of the Biblio database and is stored in JSONL format, with each line corresponding to one record.
Eyetracked Multi-Modal Translation (EMMT) is a simultaneous eye-tracking, 4-electrode EEG and audio corpus for multi-modal reading and translation scenarios. It contains monocular eye movement recordings, audio data and 4-electrode wearable electroencephalogram (EEG) data of 43 participants while engaged in sight translation supported by an image.
The details about the experiment and the dataset can be found in the README file.
This corpora is part of Deliverable 5.5 of the European Commission project QTLeap FP7-ICT-2013.4.1-610516 (http://qtleap.eu).
The texts are sentences from the Europarl parallel corpus (Koehn, 2005). We selected the monolingual sentences from parallel corpora for the following pairs: Bulgarian-English, Czech-English, Portuguese-English and Spanish-English. The English corpus is comprised by the English side of the Spanish-English corpus.
Basque is not in Europarl. In addition, it contains the Basque and English sides of the GNOME corpus.
The texts have been automatically annotated with NLP tools, including Word Sense Disambiguation, Named Entity Disambiguation and Coreference resolution. Please check deliverable D5.6 in http://qtleap.eu/deliverables for more information.
This data set contains four types of manual annotation of translation quality, focusing on the comparison of human and machine translation quality (aka human-parity). The machine translation system used is English-Czech CUNI Transformer (CUBBITT). The annotations distinguish adequacy, fluency and overall quality. One of the types is Translation Turing test - detecting whether the annotators can distinguish human from machine translation.
All the sentences are taken from the English-Czech test set newstest2018 (WMT2018 News translation shared task www.statmt.org/wmt18/translation-task.html), but only from the half with originally English sentences translated to Czech by a professional agency.
This corpus contains annotations of translation quality from English to Czech in seven categories on both segment- and document-level. There are 20 documents in total, each with 4 translations (evaluated by each annotator in paralel) of 8 segments (can be longer than one sentence). Apart from the evaluation, the annotators also proposed their own, improved versions of the translations.
There were 11 annotators in total, on expertise levels ranging from non-experts to professional translators.
Supplementary files for a comparative study of word-formation without the addition of derivational affixes (conversion) in English and Czech.
The two .csv files contain 300 verb-noun conversion pairs in English and 300 verb-noun conversion pairs in Czech, i.e. pairs where either the noun is created from the verb or the verb is created from the noun without the use of derivational affixes. In English, the noun and verb in the conversion pair have the same form. In Czech, the noun and verb in the conversion pair differ in inflectional affixes.
The pairs are supplied with manual semantic annotation based on cognitive event schemata.
A file with the Appendix includes a list of dictionary definition phrases used as a basis for the semantic annotation.
Czech translation of WordSim353. The Czech translation of English WordSim353 word pairs were obtained from four translators. All translation variants were scored according to the lexical similarity/relatedness annotation instructions for WordSim353 annotators, by 25 Czech annotators. The resulting data set consists of two annotation files: "WordSim353-cs.csv" and "WordSim-cs-Multi.csv". Both files are encoded in UTF-8, have a header, text is enclosed in double quotes, and columns are separated by commas. The rows are numbered. The WordSim-cs-Multi data set has rows numbered from 1 to 634, whereas the row indices in the WordSim353-cs data set reflect the corresponding row numbers in the WordSim-cs-Multi data set.
The WordSim353-cs file contains a one-to-one mapping selection of 353 Czech equivalent pairs whose judgments have proven to be most similar to the judgments of their corresponding English originals (compared by the absolute value of the difference between the means over all annotators in each language counterpart). In one case ("psychology-cognition"), two Czech equivalent pairs had identical means as well as confidence intervals, so we randomly selected one.
The "WordSim-cs-Multi.csv" file contains human judgments for all translation variants.
In both data sets, we preserved all 25 individual scores. In the WordSim353-cs data set, we added a column with their Czech means as well as a column containing the original English means and 95% confidence intervals in separate columns for each mean (computed by the CI function in the Rmisc R package). The WordSim-cs-Multi data set contains only the Czech means and confidence intervals. For the most convenient lexical search, we provided separate columns with the respective Czech and English single words, entire word pairs, and eventually an English-Czech quadruple in both data sets.
The data set also contains an xls table with the four translations and a preliminary selection of the best variants performed by an adjudicator.
