- ALPAC abstract "ALPAC (Automatic Language Processing Advisory Committee) was a committee of seven scientists led by John R. Pierce, established in 1964 by the U. S. Government in order to evaluate the progress in computational linguistics in general and machine translation in particular. Its report, issued in 1966, gained notoriety for being very skeptical of research done in machine translation so far, and emphasizing the need for basic research in computational linguistics; this eventually caused the U. S. Government to reduce its funding of the topic dramatically.The ALPAC was set up in April 1964 with John R. Pierce as the chairman. The committee consisted of: John R. Pierce who at the time worked for Bell Telephone Laboratories John B. Carroll, a psychologist from Harvard University Eric P. Hamp, a linguist from the University of Chicago David G. Hays, a Machine Translation researcher from RAND Corporation Charles F. Hockett, a linguist from Cornell University Anthony G. Oettinger, a Machine Translation researcher from Harvard University Alan Perlis, an Artificial Intelligence researcher from Carnegie Institute of TechnologyTestimony was heard from: Paul Garvin of Bunker-Ramo Corporation Gilbert King of Itek Corporation and previously from IBM Winfred P. Lehmann from University of Texas Jules Mersel of Bunker-Ramo CorporationALPAC’s final recommendations (p. 34) were, therefore, that research should be supported on:1. practical methods for evaluation of translations;2. means for speeding up the human translation process;3. evaluation of quality and cost of various sources of translations;4. investigation of the utilization of translations, to guard against production of translations that are never read;5. study of delays in the over-all translation process, and means for eliminating them, both in journals and in individual items;6. evaluation of the relative speed and cost of various sorts of machine-aided translation;7. adaptation of existing mechanized editing and production processes in translation;8. the over-all translation process; and9. production of adequate reference works for the translator, including the adaptation of glossaries that now exist primarily for automatic dictionary look-up in machine translation".
