Rewrite to Translate, Translate to Reward: Reinforcement Learning for Source Rewriting in Machine Translation
arXiv:2606.08011v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Although directly prompting off-the-shelf Large Language Models (LLMs) to generate meaning-preserving source rewrites can effectively enhance Machine Translation (MT) quality, doing so requires manually tuning prompts for different MT models. In this work, we propose RLSR (Reinforcement Learning for Source Rewriting), a novel RL-based framework for training a source rewriting model without tuning prompts for each MT model.
Google announces Gemini 3.5 Live Translate for instant voice-to-voice translation
Google has been chasing real-time translation for years, which it says has been one of its "pioneering machine learning experiments." We've seen numerous demos on stage at Google events in the past, but you needed Google phones, earbuds, or some other specific setup. Last year, Google brought real-time translation to more users in the Translate app, and now it's expanding availability more.
Translation Analytics for Freelancers II: Benchmarking Local LLMs for Confidential Translation Workflows
Announce Type: new Abstract: Building on our previous work, this paper develops practical, low-barrier methods for freelance translators and smaller language service providers to evaluate translation technologies using rigorous yet accessible analytic methods. Here we address a high-stakes, specialized need: offline translation for confidentiality-sensitive domains in which privacy constraints preclude the use of cloud-based engines and commercial LLMs. We expand the Reeve Foundation...
Image class translation: visual inspection of class-specific hypotheticals and classification based on translation distance
arXiv:2408.08973v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract : Purpose: A major barrier to the implementation of artificial intelligence for medical applications is automated CNNs' lack of explainability and high confidence for incorrect decisions, specifically with out-of-domain samples. We propose a generalization of image translation networks for image classification and demonstrate translation networks' potential as a more interpretable alternative to conventional black-box classifiers.
Translate-R1: Cost-Aware Translation Tool Use via Reinforcement Learning
new Abstract: The performance gap across languages in LLMs is well documented, and closing it natively requires pretraining or fine-tuning on corpora that, for most languages, do not exist. Translation offers an alternative: converting an input into the model's dominant language unlocks its full capabilities at once. Applying translation to every input, however, is wasteful for languages the model already handles, while leaving the choice to the model fails in the opposite way, as LLMs are...
Translation Heads: Disentangling meaning from language in LLM-based machine translation
Announce Type: replace Abstract: Mechanistic Interpretability (MI) seeks to explain how neural networks implement their capabilities, but the scale of Large Language Models (LLMs) has limited prior MI work in Machine Translation (MT) to word-level analyses. We study sentence-level MT from a mechanistic perspective by analyzing attention heads to understand how LLMs internally encode and distribute translation functions. We decompose MT into two subtasks: producing text in the target language...
OpenSTBench: Beyond Semantic Evaluation for Speech Translation
Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speech translation systems increasingly span speech-to-text translation (S2TT), speech-to-speech translation (S2ST), offline translation, and streaming generation, producing outputs that differ in modality, speech realization, and timing behavior. Existing evaluation practices assess important aspects such as translation quality, speech quality, and temporal quality, but these aspects are often evaluated under separate protocols, making it difficult to compare...
MatchFixAgent: Language-Agnostic Autonomous Repository-Level Code Translation Validation and Repair
Announce Type: replace Abstract: Code translation transforms source code from one programming language (PL) to another. Validating the functional equivalence of translation and repairing, if necessary, are critical steps in code translation. Existing automated validation and repair approaches struggle to generalize to many PLs due to high engineering overhead, and they rely on existing and often inadequate test suites, which results in false claims of equivalence and ineffective translation...
Automatic Labelling of Speech Translation Errors
arXiv:2606.06047v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Errors in speech translations reduce trustworthiness of Speech Translation (ST) systems and can have serious consequences. Yet currently there is no established methodology for evaluating confidence and quality estimation of speech translations. To initiate progress in this direction, we propose Speech Translation Error Labelling (STEL).
A Pocket Offline Model for Simultaneous Speech Translation as CUNI Submission to IWSLT 2026
arXiv:2606.03948v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We implement simultaneous translation capability with the offline direct speech-to-text translation model Canary, using the state-of-the-art policy AlignAtt, and submit it to IWSLT 2026 Simultaneous Speech Translation Shared task for Czech to English and English to German and Italian. The strengths of our system are: (1) high translation quality, outperforming similarly sized baselines both in low- and high-latency regimes in computationally...
