The proposed Parenthetical Terminology Translation (PTT) task aims to improve the accuracy of translating technical terms by displaying the original term in parentheses alongside its translation. To implement this approach, a representative PTT dataset was generated using a collaborative effort between large language models and traditional Neural Machine Translation (NMT) models were fine-tuned through knowledge distillation. A novel evaluation metric was also developed to assess both overall translation accuracy and the correct parenthetical presentation of terms.

This paper introduces a new approach to translating technical terms by showing the original term in parentheses alongside its translation. This helps make sure that the translated text is accurate and clear. The researchers created a special dataset for this task and used it to fine-tune traditional language models and smaller models called small-sized Large Language Models (sLMs). They also came up with a new way to measure how well the translations work.
