Training, development and text data (the same used for the Sentence-level Quality Estimation task) consist in English-German triplets (source, target and post-edit) belonging to the IT domain and already tokenized.
Training and development respectively contain 12,000 and 1,000 triplets, while the test set 2,000 instances. All data is provided by the EU project QT21 (http://www.qt21.eu/).
Training, development and test data consist in German sentences belonging to the IT domain and already tokenized. These sentences are the references of the data released for the 2016 edition of the WMT APE shared task. Differently from the data previously released, these sentences are obtained by manually translating the source sentence without leveraging the raw mt outputs. Training and development respectively contain 12,000 and 1,000 segments, while the test set 2,000 items. All data is provided by the EU project QT21 (http://www.qt21.eu/).
Training and development data for the WMT16 QE task. Test data will be published as a separate item.
This shared task will build on its previous four editions to further examine automatic methods for estimating the quality of machine translation output at run-time, without relying on reference translations. We include word-level, sentence-level and document-level estimation. The sentence and word-level tasks will explore a large dataset produced from post-editions by professional translators (as opposed to crowdsourced translations as in the previous year). For the first time, the data will be domain-specific (IT domain). The document-level task will use, for the first time, entire documents, which have been human annotated for quality indirectly in two ways: through reading comprehension tests and through a two-stage post-editing exercise. Our tasks have the following goals:
- To advance work on sentence and word-level quality estimation by providing domain-specific, larger and professionally annotated datasets.
- To study the utility of detailed information logged during post-editing (time, keystrokes, actual edits) for different levels of prediction.
- To analyse the effectiveness of different types of quality labels provided by humans for longer texts in document-level prediction.
This year's shared task provides new training and test datasets for all tasks, and allows participants to explore any additional data and resources deemed relevant. A in-house MT system was used to produce translations for the sentence and word-level tasks, and multiple MT systems were used to produce translations for the document-level task. Therefore, MT system-dependent information will be made available where possible.
The item contains models to tune for the WMT16 Tuning shared task for Czech-to-English.
CzEng 1.6pre (http://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/czeng/czeng16pre) corpus is used for the training of the translation models. The data is tokenized (using Moses tokenizer), lowercased and sentences longer than 60 words and shorter than 4 words are removed before training. Alignment is done using fast_align (https://github.com/clab/fast_align) and the standard Moses pipeline is used for training.
Two 5-gram language models are trained using KenLM: one only using the CzEng English data and the other is trained using all available English mono data for WMT except Common Crawl.
Also included are two lexicalized bidirectional reordering models, word based and hierarchical, with msd conditioned on both source and target of processed CzEng.

Training and development data for the WMT 2017 Automatic post-editing task (the same used for the Sentence-level Quality Estimation task). They consist in German-English triplets (source, target and post-edit) belonging to the pharmacological domain and already tokenized. Training and development respectively contain 25,000 and 1,000 triplets. All data is provided by the EU project QT21 (http://www.qt21.eu/).
Training data for the WMT 2017 Automatic post-editing task (the same used for the Sentence-level Quality Estimation task).

Training and development data for the WMT17 QE task. Test data will be published as a separate item.
This shared task will build on its previous five editions to further examine automatic methods for estimating the quality of machine translation output at run-time, without relying on reference translations. We include word-level, phrase-level and sentence-level estimation. All tasks will make use of a large dataset produced from post-editions by professional translators. The data will be domain-specific (IT and Pharmaceutical domains) and substantially larger than in previous years. In addition to advancing the state of the art at all prediction levels, our goals include:
- To test the effectiveness of larger (domain-specific and professionally annotated) datasets. We will do so by increasing the size of one of last year's training sets.
- To study the effect of language direction and domain. We will do so by providing two datasets created in similar ways, but for different domains and language directions.
- To investigate the utility of detailed information logged during post-editing. We will do so by providing post-editing time, keystrokes, and actual edits.
This year's shared task provides new training and test datasets for all tasks, and allows participants to explore any additional data and resources deemed relevant. A in-house MT system was used to produce translations for all tasks. MT system-dependent information can be made available under request. The data is publicly available but since it has been provided by our industry partners it is subject to specific terms and conditions. However, these have no practical implications on the use of this data for research purposes.
