Abstract

DA + Criteria is a translation quality assessment method proposed based on a comprehensive systematic literature review on the concepts of quality in machine translation and translation studies. In the presented project the method was tested alongside MQM on the German translations by humans, DeepL and ChatGPT of English non-fiction texts, using the results of the study as well as the participants’ answers to further refine the method.
