Machine Translation

Machine translation in GlobalSight is configured as part of a TM Profile. To access the MT configuration,

Open Setup > Translation Memory Profiles
Select a Translation Memory Profile (or create a new one), and click the MT Options button

You'll see this page:

There are five options on this page:

MT Engine: This menu allows you to select which MT engine to use. Note that although the menu lists both Google and ProMT, only Google Translate is currently supported by GlobalSightSaaS.
Override Non-Exact Matches below Threshold: If this box is checked, machine translation will be used to populate translations for any segment whose TM fuzzy match score is below a certain threshold. (This button could have been called "Enable Machine Translation", because if it is not checked, no machine translation will be used.)
Auto Commit to TM: If this button is selected, translations provided by MT will automatically be saved to the TM. Most users will probably want to disable this, because it can pollute the translation memory.
MT-sensitive Leveraging: This setting is used to generate an equivalent fuzzy match score for segments that have been translated by MT. The value of the attached field will be subtracted from 100% to get the score. For example, if the default 1% value is used, then MT translations will be treated as fuzzy matches with a score of 99%. (If the value for the option is 0%, then MT translations will be treated as exact matches.)
Show in Editor: If unchecked, translations provided by MT will not appear to translators working with the Online Editor. Most users will want this enabled.

Once MT is enabled for a TM Profile, it will be used as needed by any files imported using that profile.
