Serval App for Suggestions

[johnml1135]

We need a test bench for being able to interact with different suggestions rapidly to determine the best way to present them to the user, either in Paratext or in SF. Therefore, a light-weight python app that can handle suggestions would be very helpful.

• Built off of Serval App tech stack
• Same (or separate) app
• Use Auth0 creds to login, use email to start project and keep track of project, as in Serval App
• Stage 1:
  • Build SMT engine, use Machine.js and draft a chapter of a book, one line at a time
  • Incremental update or retrain possible
  • Experiment with different UI's for ease of use
• Stage 2:
  • Download or email drafts as USFM, etc.
• Stage 3:
  • Integrate with NMT suggestions, as they come out, be able to switch or potentially merge results

Objectives:

• Establish qualitative quality of SMT vs NMT vs merged suggestions
• Determine best UI for using suggestions
• Give to translators to assess which is best with different languages and tech experiance
• Feed data to SF or use it to create a Paratext 9.x or Paratext.Bible app.

Let's assume this will be swallowed up in the intelligent editor prototyping.
