Four European universities, led by the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, are developing the MutNMT tool to train multilingual citizens across Europe in the possibilities and uses of neural machine translation. Twenty partners from the education sector and the translation industry are also part of the project.

The MultiTraiNMT project has its own neural machine translation learning platform: it is open source and offers many possibilities for both professionals and students.

Machine translation is a tool that offers a wealth of possibilities for language learners and teachers, as well as for professional translators and trainees. Moreover, in recent years, machine translation and deep learning have been combined, leading to neural machine translation.

In the Faculty of Translation and Interpreting of the UAB a project has been born to train all multilingual European citizens in the possibilities offered by neural machine translation: MultiTraiNMT. Three European universities and twenty other partners have joined this project, contributing knowledge and experience from the academic and professional fields.

In order to materialise and exemplify all this learning, the project also has its own tool: MutNMT. It is open source, with its own public corpora, its own translation engines, translation evaluation tools and automatic translation of short texts and documents. The Faculty of Translation and Interpreting invites everyone to explore the tool and use it for all their projects, whether educational or professional.
