Challenges for Arabic Machine Translation
This chapter addresses the exploitation of a supervised machine learning technique to automatically induce Arabic-to-English transfer rules from chunks of parallel aligned linguistic resources. The induced structural transfer rules encode the linguistic translation knowledge for converting an Arabic syntactic structure into a target English syntactic structure. These rules are going to be an integral part of an Arabic-English transfer-based machine translation. Nevertheless, a novel morphological rule induction method is employed for learning Arabic morphological rules that are applied in our Arabic morphological analyzer. To demonstrate the capability of the automated rule induction technique, we conducted rule-based translation experiments that use induced rules from a relatively small data set. The translation quality of the hybrid translation experiments achieved good results. in terms of WER.

The Georgetown guide to Arabic-English translation
Mughazy, a well-respected scholar of Arabic linguistics and a Georgetown Languages board member, takes a practical approach to the task of translating nonfiction from Arabic to English. Using Optimality Theory from linguistics, he provides a new way, based in linguistics, of looking at best practices for translation with the goal to find the most accurate translation. He aims to approach translation more scientifically (identify the problem, test hypotheses, selecting the best option and finding patterns) than those who use the more widely known literary translation theory. Although there are several books out on this topic, none address it as Mughazy has. This is a unique approach that offers a new, more practical way for those with advanced knowledge of Arabic to learn how to translate. As more schools begin or consider beginning translation programs, this book may find a larger audience over the years. Mughazy's book is rich with authentic examples, exercises (answer key included), and includes very valuable appendices for the learner. As Clara told me, \"This is a book I wish I had had in grad school.\"

Saudi Learner Translation Corpus: The design and compilation of an English–Arabic learner translation corpus
This article introduces the Saudi Learner Translation Corpus (SauLTC), an innovative multi-version English–Arabic parallel corpus featuring part-of-speech tagging. We describe the corpus parameters and compilation process and explain how textual processing and sentence alignment are conducted. The participants include 366 student translators, 48 instructors, and 23 alignment verifiers. The corpus provides access to two target versions of every ST to allow the detection of the changes in the translation and revision processes from the initial to the final draft. The translations were collected over three years, yielding 5,160,386 tokens. The metadata of 23 sentence alignment verifiers were added to the analysis as a unique variable to investigate individual differences in the manual verification process. This unidirectional corpus can be used to identify student translators’ strategies and errors in translation and analyze the efficacy of instructors’ feedback. Furthermore, it is accessible via an application and a website. It provides translation teachers and researchers with a database that can help develop corpus-based and corpus-driven teaching materials.
