IWSLT 2013

Training and development sets for the MT track

The IWSLT 2013 Evaluation Campaign includes the MT track on TED Talks. In this edition, the official language pairs are three:

  from English to French

  from English to German

  from German to English

Optional tasks are proposed with English paired in both directions with other twelve languages:

  from/to English to/from Arabic, Spanish, Farsi, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese-Brazil, Romanian, Russian, Slovenian, Turkish and Chinese

Submitted runs on additional pairs will be evaluated as well, in the hope to stimulate the MT community to evaluate systems on common benchmarks and to share achievements on challenging translation tasks.

The archive with training and development sets is available at this link.

Reference performance of baseline systems are available here.
