Participants were asked to build machine translation systems for any of 7 language pairs in both directions, to be evaluated on a test set of news stories. The main metric for this task is human judgment of translation quality. This year, we also opened up the task to additional test sets to probe specific aspects of translation.","url_abs":"https://aclanthology.org/W18-6401","url_pdf":"https://aclanthology.org/W18-6401.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"automatic-post-editing","task_name":"Automatic Post-Editing"},{"task_slug":"machine-translation","task_name":"Machine Translation"},{"task_slug":"multimodal-machine-translation","task_name":"Multimodal Machine Translation"},{"task_slug":"translation","task_name":"Translation"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[{"slug":"wmt-2018","name":"WMT 2018","full_name":""},{"slug":"wmt-2018-news","name":"WMT 2018 News","full_name":"WMT 2018 News Translation Task"}],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
