AI opportunities in medical translation: oneword in Healthcare Marketing

The latest print edition of the trade magazine Healthcare Marketing includes an article that looks at how artificial intelligence in medical translation is changing the industry. The magazine interviewed four translation service providers about the opportunities and challenges presented by using this technology, particularly in the context of the high standards required in professional medical communications. The experts included Jasmin Nesbigall, Head of MTPE and Terminology Management at oneword. Here we summarise the most important insights from the article.

The common thread in the translation process and in standards

In our article on the most important DIN standards in the translation process, we provided an overview of the key standards that are used in the various phases of text creation, translation and terminology work. In view of the growing number of standards covering all steps of the translation process, it is becoming increasingly important not to lose sight of the common thread that ties all of these standards together. In this blog post, we look at the importance of translation project specifications as a unifying element and the central role they play in standards.

Automating translation processes between clients and service providers: what options are there?

A translation is the result of many small steps within a process chain. This begins with commissioning the project, continues with the provision of relevant information and requirements to the service provider, and ends with the delivery of a finished translation. There are some complex intermediate steps where human input is required: this is particularly important when preparing files for translation with translation memory systems or quality checks.

oneCleanup: cleaning up data made easy

Data is the new gold: it's valuable and required for a range of processes, applications and developments. Generative AI in particular is showing once again what large amounts of data can create. But data is also the new rubbish: it appears in a wide variety of places and in large quantities, accumulates quickly, never reduces in size and sometimes grows very uncontrollably. And the bigger the mountain of data, the more difficult it becomes to use it meaningfully. Our oneCleanup service takes on this challenge and helps to uncover the shimmering gold beneath the layer of dirt. We present the background information and details, and we demonstrate why it's high time that databases are seen not as a tangled mess but as treasure troves.

Term extraction and AI: how to get it right.

Term extraction is the first step in extracting specialised terminology and creating a terminology database. How the extraction is carried out depends largely on the database and the time and personnel resources available. This is because working manually quickly becomes extremely time-consuming when the source files are extensive. And, at the moment, AI is always called upon if manual tasks need to be supported or automated. But what does term extraction look like? Is it enough to formulate a prompt to extract all the specialised terms from a text? We pitted human, machine and AI against each other in several tests with different texts and prompting strategies. Here we present the results and show the advantages and disadvantages of each of the three options.

Machine translation within the company: oneTranslate translates quickly, is data-secure, and uses the correct terminology

Thanks to freely accessible translation engines, it is now possible to translate a document, an e-mail or an informational text without great expense or effort, but unfortunately this is not without its risks.
