Conference Statement

The Center for Translation Studies of the Department of Chinese and Bilingual Studies, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University are delighted to announce the "International Conference on Quantitative Translation and Interpreting Studies in the Age of AI" to be held in June 6-7, 2025, at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University.

This conference examines the rapidly evolving landscape of translation and interpreting studies in the era of artificial intelligence, with a focus on quantitative approaches. As the field transitions from traditional metrics to data-driven methodologies, researchers are increasingly integrating artificial intelligence (including large language models) and computational methods into their work. We invite scholars to explore the convergence of corpus-based translation and interpreting studies (CBTIS), quantitative linguistics, and AI technologies, examining their implications for both theoretical advancement and practical applications.

Submissions of abstracts for individual papers or panels related to the conference themes are welcome, covering (but not restricted to) the following topics:

1. Quantitative Linguistic Approaches in Translation and Interpreting Studies
2. Computational Linguistic Approaches in Translation and Interpreting Studies
3. Artificial Intelligence in Translation and Interpreting Studies
4. Human-AI Collaboration in Translation and Interpreting
5. Product and Process in AI-Assisted Translation and Interpreting
6. Quality Assessment for AI-Assisted Translation and Interpreting
7. Ethical Issues in AI-Assisted Translation and Interpreting
8. Cognition Studies in Translation and Interpreting
9. Corpus-Based Approaches in Translation and Interpreting Studies. 
10. Neural Machine Translation and Interpreting Research
11. Advances in Translator and Interpreter Training with AI
12. Natural Language Processing in Translation and Interpreting
