電腦輔助翻譯
维基百科，自由的百科全书
電腦輔助翻譯（CAT，Computer-assisted Translation或Computer-aided Translation），亦稱電腦輔助翻譯系統，係透過人工智慧搜尋及比對技術，運用參考資料庫和翻譯記憶程式，紀錄翻譯人員所完成之譯文，當遇到相同與重複的句型、片語或專業術語時，能提供翻譯人員建議和解決方案，有效節省翻譯時間及成本，同時確保翻譯品質與風格的一致性。
簡而言之，電腦輔助翻譯就是充分運用資料庫功能，將已翻譯的文本內容加以儲存。當日後遇到相似或相同的翻譯文句時，電腦會自動比對並建議翻譯人員使用資料庫中已有的譯文作為可能的翻譯，讓翻譯人員自行決定是否接受、編輯或拒絕使用。概念上與一般機器翻譯、翻譯機、翻譯軟體及線上翻譯軟體截然不同的。目前電腦輔助翻譯工具包括有Trados、Transit、Wordfast、Logoport、Microsoft LocStudio、IBMTM/Win等。
