Before Macao’s return to China, research in this area was virtually nonexistent. The gap was filled in 1999 when Prof Wong developed the world’s first Chinese-Portuguese electronic dictionary, making him a pioneer in machine translation research in Macao. Soon after the launch of the e-dictionary, more than 800 government departments and private companies became registered users. ‘Before the handover of Macao’s sovereignty to China, a large number of official documents needed to be translated, but there was no software or system to aid the translation, so the development of the first e-dictionary was driven by a practical need,’ he says. In 2007, during his visit to UM, then Portuguese President José Sócrates praised the university for its achievements in Chinese-Portuguese translation studies, which he believed would promote the friendship and collaboration between China and Portugal. His prediction has come true. The machine translation systems developed by UM over the years have indeed greatly facilitated Sino-Portuguese communication in business and cultural affairs. Prof Wong says, ‘UM has established an interdisciplinary research platform, which is focused on the studies of natural language processing, machine translation, machine learning, and text inference, as well as the development of related systems.’ 澳大 ݶ 中२⏲ಾ㡕⦨ ػ ٨研ᆳ⧀㏅ⅰ⢊研〛ᕐ˔䢬㷊 ㍽ᐑእਸ݉ 6. $"5ⅰᕍᑓ研發成ᗈǎ Prof Wong Fai presents the latest progress of UMCAT at a joint seminar co-organised by UM and the Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences.
