Pluto (CEO Lee Jeong-su), an artificial intelligence (AI) data and solutions company, announced on the 26th that it will provide a special lecture within the machine translation special lecture curriculum in collaboration with the Yonsei University Graduate School of Language and Information Studies Interdisciplinary Program.
This special lecture on machine translation aims to provide a foundational understanding of translation concepts and a basic understanding of the development and practical applications of machine translation, including rule-based, statistical, and neural network-based methods. It also explores the differences between human and machine translation, and discusses methods for evaluating machine translation performance and ethical issues.
Pluto will be holding two special lectures during the second semester of this year. These lectures will examine the latest trends in the global machine translation industry and the future direction of AI technology development, and will also showcase actual machine translation projects Pluto has implemented. Through these lectures, students are expected to broaden their practical perspectives by going beyond mere theoretical learning and engaging with real-world technologies and practices.
This collaboration between Pluto and Yonsei University has created a new platform for academic-industrial cooperation, along with educational contributions in the field of machine translation. In particular, it is expected to serve as an opportunity to explore various future joint R&D opportunities and industry-linked projects, including a joint research project with the Korea Internet & Security Agency (KISA) led by Professor Kim Han-sam, the course instructor.
Lee Jeong-su, CEO of Pluto, said, “It is meaningful to be able to introduce students to business models utilized in real industries and provide them with project experience through collaboration with Yonsei University. I hope that this industry-academia joint lecture will be the beginning of various joint research and collaborations on machine translation technology, which is particularly noteworthy in the AI era.”
Professor Kim Han-sam of the Yonsei University Language Information Studies Collaborative Program, who opened the course, said, “Thanks to the industry-academia collaboration with Pluto, we have opened a course where students can experience real-world cases and frameworks for applying machine translation technology to various domains and building data for it.” He explained the purpose of opening the course, saying, “It will be a desirable example of an industry-academia collaboration course that will be of practical help to students.”
