Translate

This application, as illustrated in the Figure below, translates text descriptions into different languages within Geoscience ANALYST. The user selects the target language from the available options. Subsequently, the application translates each description into the chosen language. If the chosen language is the same as the original descriptions language, the text will be cleaned and improved. The application can optionally provide confidence scores for the translation quality. The output translation integrates seamlessly as text data in Geoscience ANALYST, immediately linked to the corresponding data object. Users can then easily visualize and refine the translation as necessary.

Interface

You can run the application using the interface depicted in the Figure below.

../_images/translate_uijson.png

The interface contains the following parameters:

Data selection

  • Drillhole data: The drillhole group and the associated text data to translate.

  • Object: The object containing the text data to translate.

  • Data: The text data to translate.

Main parameters

  • Language: The target language to translate the descriptions into. Available options are English, Français, Español, Português, and Deutsch. If the chosen language is the same as the descriptions language, the text will be cleaned and improved.

  • Language model: The language model to use for translation. The available models are listed in the Models Available table.

  • Add confidence: When enabled, adds confidence scores to the translation results. The confidence data will be named as ‘Output name’ + ‘_confidence’. The confidence score indicates if the model is confident (high) or hesitant (low) about the translation. This score is only indicative and should be used with caution.

  • Output name: The name for the resulting translated data.

  • OK: Clicking “OK” runs the application with the specified parameters.

Advanced parameters

  • Context (optional): The context to use for the translation. It can be used to provide additional information to the model.

The application opens a console displaying the progress of the translation. Upon completion, the new translation is made available as text Data within the Geoscience ANALYST project.

Results

The results can be found in Geoscience ANALYST, as illustrated in the figure below. A Text Data entry is created under the object selected in the application (DrillholeData or Object in the Interface). If confidence scoring is enabled, additional confidence data will also be available.
