Research group - Language and Technologies

The research group conducts research on the interaction between language and technology, e.g. machine translation, translation memories, localization, speech recognition, etc., as well as on the impact of language technologies on society in the interdisciplinary research and study context. The research group undertakes interdisciplinary research into language and translation through the technological lens, in relation to either the methodological approaches or the impact on the society.

Research topics:

  • machine translation and post-editing;
  • software localisation;
  • audiovisual translation;
  • terminology & translation;
  • corpus linguistics.
