REGULAR USE OF MACHINE TRANSLATION OF RUSSIAN AT
OAK RIDGE NATIONAL LABORATORY
Martha W. Gerrard
Oak Ridge National Laboratory*
Scientific Russian articles are translated at Oak Ridge National
Laboratory on a regular basis. User reaction is favorable. The
machine dictionary is updated frequently, and fields other than the
original chemistry of the dictionary are being included. Training
of key-punch operators is not difficult, and present costs are
comparable with those of human translation. The greatest problem
is legibility of the Russian copy with which we are supplied by
requestors.
