1 00:00:00,265 --> 00:00:02,265 [ELECTRONIC MUSIC] 2 00:00:10,635 --> 00:00:13,787 Hello again, now the short video that you are about to see 3 00:00:13,908 --> 00:00:18,290 it is an explanation about the NER model and the IRA model. 4 00:00:18,290 --> 00:00:22,580 Carlo Eugeni will give us an explanation about both models 5 00:00:22,580 --> 00:00:25,914 and their main differences. I hope you will enjoy it. 6 00:00:27,582 --> 00:00:33,737 There are different models that are used to assess quality. 7 00:00:34,192 --> 00:00:40,815 One is the NER model based on Word Error Rate system. 8 00:00:41,163 --> 00:00:42,663 Basically... 9 00:00:43,755 --> 00:00:48,287 it is aimed at comparing the source text 10 00:00:48,287 --> 00:00:50,287 and the target text, 11 00:00:50,287 --> 00:00:53,606 and see if the words of the target text 12 00:00:53,606 --> 00:00:57,107 correspond to the ones in the source text 13 00:00:57,107 --> 00:01:02,595 this model is very good for analysing 14 00:01:02,595 --> 00:01:06,416 and assessing verbatim subtitles. 15 00:01:06,416 --> 00:01:09,000 If subtitles are sensatim 16 00:01:12,867 --> 00:01:16,626 the NER model also provide tools 17 00:01:16,626 --> 00:01:20,021 for assessing if... 18 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:27,692 If the quality of the reformulation is good or not. 19 00:01:27,692 --> 00:01:30,587 But it is not really developed. 20 00:01:32,770 --> 00:01:39,304 That is why in Italy or at least in some cases 21 00:01:39,304 --> 00:01:41,304 we use the IRA model 22 00:01:41,304 --> 00:01:46,230 which is idea-unit rendition assessment. 23 00:01:46,230 --> 00:01:48,230 It is based on idea-units. 24 00:01:48,230 --> 00:01:54,385 The rational of the IRA model is... 25 00:01:58,160 --> 00:01:59,677 Does the subtitle 26 00:01:59,677 --> 00:02:04,846 provide the same message as the source text, the speech? 27 00:02:04,846 --> 00:02:10,591 If yes, then the all subtitle is considered... 28 00:02:13,426 --> 00:02:14,668 as good. 29 00:02:15,836 --> 00:02:20,747 So it is not based on word it is based on idea units, on sentences, 30 00:02:21,217 --> 00:02:22,672 or clauses. 31 00:02:24,294 --> 00:02:27,340 So it follows a different rationale 32 00:02:27,340 --> 00:02:33,000 because it sees if there has been a message 33 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,136 which has been delivered or not. 34 00:02:35,136 --> 00:02:38,516 For example, in a long sentence with many adjectives 35 00:02:38,516 --> 00:02:40,016 if you remove one 36 00:02:40,016 --> 00:02:43,456 in the case of the NER model you have one mistake 37 00:02:43,456 --> 00:02:46,654 in the case of the IRA model you do not have mistakes 38 00:02:46,654 --> 00:02:51,095 because the message is delivered. 39 00:02:51,095 --> 00:02:52,746 The other way around 40 00:02:52,746 --> 00:02:57,627 if one word is missing in the IRA model 41 00:02:57,627 --> 00:03:01,992 and this word is the verb for example, 42 00:03:01,992 --> 00:03:07,237 meaning that you are not able to deliver the message 43 00:03:07,237 --> 00:03:10,844 in the case of NER model it is one mistake 44 00:03:10,844 --> 00:03:12,526 in the case of the IRA model 45 00:03:12,526 --> 00:03:16,376 it is a all idea-unit which is compromised. 46 00:03:17,089 --> 00:03:21,000 They both work very well 47 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:26,503 with what they are designed to assess, 48 00:03:26,503 --> 00:03:29,792 meaning verbatim subtitles in the case of the NER model 49 00:03:29,792 --> 00:03:33,885 and sensatim subtitles in the case of the IRA model. 50 00:03:35,492 --> 00:03:40,343 But I see some limitations in both 51 00:03:40,343 --> 00:03:43,313 because it depends on how you use them. 52 00:03:44,541 --> 00:03:46,541 [ELECTRONIC MUSIC]
