摘要

面对新的技术变革，口译领域急需证据来证明计算机辅助口译的有效性。本研究提出一种结合语音识别(SR)和机器翻译(MT)的计算机辅助交替传译(CACI)模式。首先，口译员听源语音并将其输入语音翻译系统，创建语音翻译文本，然后由机器翻译系统进行处理。第二，译员根据翻译原文和翻译原文制作目标语篇。6名学生参加了CACI培训，培训结束后，他们分别进行了传统和新模式的交替传译。研究发现，CACI的特点是停顿更少，认知负荷更低。此外，口译的整体质量，特别是准确性也有所提高。新模式的有效性受解释方向的影响。

The effectiveness of computer-assisted interpreting

Facing a new technological turn, the field of interpreting is in great need of evidence on the effectiveness of computer-assisted interpreting. This study proposes a computer-assisted consecutive interpreting (CACI) mode incorporating speech recognition (SR) and machine translation (MT). First, the interpreter listens to the source speech and respeaks it into an SR system, creating an SR text which is then processed by an MT system. Second, the interpreter produces a target speech with reference to the SR and MT texts. Six students participated in training on CACI, after which they performed consecutive interpreting in both the conventional and the new mode. The study finds that CACI featured fewer pauses and reduced cognitive load. Moreover, the overall interpreting quality, especially the accuracy, was increased. The effectiveness of the new mode is found to be modulated by the interpreting direction.

期刊介绍： Translation and Interpreting Studies (TIS) is a biannual, peer-reviewed journal designed to disseminate knowledge and research relevant to all areas of language mediation. TIS seeks to address broad, common concerns among scholars working in various areas of Translation and Interpreting Studies, while encouraging sound empirical research that could serve as a bridge between academics and practitioners. The journal is also dedicated to facilitating communication among those who may be working on related subjects in other fields, from Comparative Literature to Information Science. Finally, TIS is a forum for the dissemination in English translation of relevant scholarly research originally published in languages other than English. TIS is the official journal of the American Translation and Interpreting Studies Association (ATISA).
