MT research project featured on Swiss TV
As part of our research project Machine Translation for Romansh Idioms, a new machine translation tool for the Romansh language has been released: «Alas». It creates automatic translations from German into all five Romansh varieties (Sursilvan, Sutsilvan, Surmiran, Puter, and Vallader) as well as a standard written language, Rumantsch Grischun.
«Alas» was created in collaboration in Lia Rumantscha and UZH's Linguistic Research Infrastructure (LiRI), and received funding from Fundaziun Patrimoni Cultural RTR.
