During the period 8 to 12 Oct 2023 I completed a Virtual Mobility with Anabela Barreiro at INESC-ID to Support the implementation of research coordination for Multi-task, Multilingual, and Multimodal Language Generation. The Virtual Mobility provided a unique opportunity to contribute to the development of OpenLogos, a free software system that represents a vital resource for the MT community. It provides both a learning platform and a framework for the development of rule-based translation systems.
During the VM I helped establish and OpenLogos GitHub Organization available at https://github.com/OpenLogos, with 5 repositories:
Branislav Gerazov
- Dictionaries Repository: hosting the English to Portuguese dictionary
- SEMTAB Rules Repository: hosting the Semantico-syntactic (SEMTAB) rules for translating English to Spanish
- Source Code Repository: hosting the source code of OpenLogos
- an OpenLogos Webpage: the webpage describes the OpenLogos project and hosts the Semantico-Syntactic Abstraction Language (SAL) tutorial
The results of the VM contributed to a paper on OpenLogos [1] submitted to Open Research Europe, as a contribution to the Multi3Generation collection “Advances in Natural Language Generation” available at: [ https://open-research-europe.ec.europa.eu/collections/natural-language-generation/about | https://open-research-europe.ec.europa.eu/collections/natural-language-generation/about ]
