This course is not easy to follow. The additional readings are typically scientific papers on the topic, which is not helpful. How about a beginner's course on the topic?

Kurs eher an Programmierer als Übersetzer orientiert. Die Erklärungen waren ziemlich komplex und erforderten meiner Meinung nach gründlichere IT- bzw. Softwareprogrammierungskenntnisse. Wenn der Dozent auf Englisch spricht, sollte seine Aussprache auch verständlicher sein oder zumindest sollten die Untertiteln nicht automatisiert, sondern richtig korrigiert sein.

It emphasizes programming and the fundamentals behind machine translation, not machine translation itself (which was my focus or desire of study). Therefore, it is more oriented towards programming than translation or machine translation post editing itself.

The 6th and 7th week are difficult the follow- too much theory and not enough practicals and very few examples. Week 1-4 is really good. The resources at the end of each lesson are excellent. The lectures can be more interactive.

This course provides a good overview of different techniques and concepts used in MT. There is one improvement that I would recommend. I am convinced that the content would stick better in the memory of the students if the theory could be accompanied by practical exercises. Thank you for this course.

Course is very nice as an overview of the state of research in this area. Lot's of links to scientific papers, but no project included. I would love to work on implementations of some techniques mentioned there. Probably would continue with some TensorFlow tutorial.

You should have previous basic understanding about MT. Otherwise, you won't understand the core parts of it.

This course gives a good overview on the topic with good ressources and references for further reading. The only thing, which could be improved in my opinion is a more engaging way of presenting the lectures, but this is complaining at a high level.

Good content but assignments slightly too easy and pleeease improve the English skills or use German instead and place subtitles. Thank you!

An extensive review of machine translation techniques up to the transformer model, with a high level and clear explanation. It is a very good course if one wants to get a broad understanding of machine translation. The tutor creates his own graphical representations that clearly convey the idea behind each concept, which I have never seen used in somewhere else, and they work extremely well.
The tutor pronounces certain English words differently, but I get used to it quickly, and it doesn't bother me since.

My review is not 5 stars because of the quality of transcription and subtitles.
I had to follow many videos without audio, and I read the transcript or the subtitles, but their quality was poor. I passed all the time to figure out what the text would have to mean (e.g. "source text" became "sewer text").

The first part of the course is very interesting but the second part focuses too much on technical topics, it's more about informatics than translation. It wasn't easy to follow it and honestly I found it excessive as a translator, since I was more interested on how to use it properly.

This course is not a MT one, it is rather a complex math dilemma!

Hello Dear Mr./Ms. I am happy to inform you that I was able to successfully pass the desired course titled "Machine Translation" and reach the certification stage, but since this course included a 75% discount for me, unfortunately, I am unable to pay the remaining fee. I don't have it because my country is embargoed and I don't have access to global markets and I can't pay the fee Please help me and get the certificate for the said course for free so that I can download it and attach it to my resume and also on LinkedIn. Thank you

This is a very informative and interesting topic.
We often use some tools such as online translator without knowing the technological science on the backend and the people behind this very difficult task.
Surely this course is not easy and may require full attention, more months of studying and maybe some pre-requisite subjects, but overall its a "good-to-know" subject.

Very useful for translators who want to learn the behind the scenes of the tools that are used every day like me.
