We would like to express our deepest gratitude for your continued support of our association's
activities.
This year marks the 35th anniversary of our association's founding. To commemorate this, we will hold the
international track on Sunday, September 13, and the domestic track on Monday, September 14, at the Todaiji
Cultural Center in Nara, under the theme "AAMT 2026, Nara: New Co-evolution of Translation and Humans in the
LLM Era". The event will be held in a hybrid format, with simultaneous online streaming in addition to the
on-site venue.
At the international conference, Dr. Jun'ichi Tsujii, Fellow at the Artificial Intelligence Research Center (AIST), and Dr. Sadao Kurohashi, Director General of the National Institute of Informatics, will deliver keynote speeches. Additionally, experts active in various fields such as natural language processing, industrial translation, and automatic interpretation will take the stage to share insights on the challenges of machine translation and future initiatives. We look forward to your active participation.
