False positives in QA

Hi,

How can I reduce the number of false positives in the QA checker?

  • If you are talking about false positives for terminology, you could try out the tool checkTerm, developed by our partner Kaleidoscope. Using intelligent morphological technology, it provides a higher number of accurate results and less false positives when scanning your documents to verify terminology – see www.sdl.com/.../.  

    With the release of Language Cloud terminology, SDL has also introduced the concept of a linguistic term search. When this search mode is activated, Studio will search text or terms which are similar to the search term, or which are a sub-part of it. For example, if you enter a derived word, linguistic search retrieves all the terms based on that word's stem (or root).

    SDL Trados Studio terminology settings window showing options for term search and term recognition with a focus on the linguistic search feature.

    However this new concept hasn’t yet been implemented in the terminology QA checks, so for now, I would recommend checkTerm for that.
