Idea Delivered

Edit Distance Reporting capability for all human tasks

Hello,

we would like to be able to do ED reporting -  currently this seems to be possible only for the Translation task.

We would be interested to have ED reporting likewise for the Customer Review (and potentially other tasks) to validate the amount  of deviations between what the translation agency did and what the customer reviewers changed.

This would allow (if there can be a custom action for it) to not route tasks where there were zero edits to the translation vendor for review implementation.

Please improve the ED reporting, making it available for all human tasks.

Thank you.

Best, Bernhard

  • Hi Bernhard,

    Edit distance metrics are already available for human tasks.

    I suggest starting with the Translation Productivity Assessment dataset, which includes metrics at file level corresponding to the number of segments with Edit Distance 0-10. You can then join on a table called Human Originating Tasks which includes a single field representing the Human Originating Task Name. You can then use this field to filter on the different human tasks, as required.

    Cheers,

    Ian
