초록

기계번역 품질 예측(Quality Estimation, QE)은 정답 문장(Reference sentence) 없이도 기계번역 결과의 질을 평가할 수 있으며, 활용도가 높다는 점에서 그 필요성이 대두되고 있다. Conference on machine translation(WMT)에서 매년 이와 관련한 shared task가 열리고 있고 최근에는 대용량 데이터 기반 Pretrained language model(PLM)을 적용한 연구들이 주로 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 기계번역 품질 예측 task에 대한 설명 및 연구 동향에 대한 전반적인 survey를 진행했고, 최근 자주 활용되는 PLM의 특징들에 대해 정리하였다. 더불어 아직 활용된 바가 없는 multilingual BART 모델을 이용하여 기존 연구들인 XLM, multilingual BERT, XLM-RoBERTa와의 비교 실험 및 분석을 진행하였다. 실험 결과 어떤 사전 학습된 다중언어 모델이 QE에 적용했을 때 가장 효과적인지 확인하였을 뿐 아니라 multilingual BART 모델의 QE 태스크 적용 가능성을 확인했다.

Abstract

Quality estimation (QE) can evaluate the quality of machine translation output even for those who do not know the target language, and its high utilization highlights the need for QE. QE shared task is held every year at Conference on Machine Translation (WMT), and recently, researches applying Pretrained Language Model (PLM) are mainly being conducted. In this paper, we conduct a survey on the QE task and research trends, and we summarize the features of PLM. In addition, we used a multilingual BART model that has not yet been utilized and performed comparative analysis with the existing studies such as XLM, multilingual BERT, and XLM-RoBERTa. As a result of the experiment, we confirmed which PLM was most effective when applied to QE, and saw the possibility of applying the multilingual BART model to the QE task.
