Postdoctoral Fellowship, Machine Translation

5 months ago


Ottawa, Canada National Research Council Canada Full time

There are more than 103 million displaced persons in the world today. While English remains the global language of policy exchange and studies, significant knowledge on refugee issues appears in other languages spoken where forced migration occurs. Machine translation (MT) improves the accessibility of relevant publications across different languages and facilitates fair and inclusive discussion among international stakeholders. However, challenges with in-domain multilingual neural machine translation (MNMT) limits the availability of efficient, affordable and manageable MT with usable translation quality for forced migration responses.

The successful fellow will collaborate with Carleton University and the Refugee Studies Centre at the University of Oxford to create an in-domain multiway parallel corpus from the regular and special issues of the Forced Migration Review journal. This corpus will then enable research on MNMT and its adaptation to the refugee domain. Finally, the fellow will research on training MNMT to translate unseen languages efficiently with mínimal resources.

**Education**:
PhD in Computer Science, Computational Linguistics or related discipline.

For information on certificates and diplomas issued abroad, please see Degree equivalency

- Hands on experience in end-to-end MT modeling and training.
- Research experience in MNMT.
- Research experience in parallel corpus building, domain adaptation, non-English centric MT or low resource MT.
