澳大學人分享語言技術塑造人工智能
澳門大學今（22）日舉行“澳大學人研究講壇”第27講，由澳大科技學院電腦及資訊科學系教授、自然語言處理與中葡機器翻譯實驗室主任黃輝圍繞“從‘詞’到‘世界知識’：語言技術塑造人工智能之路”發表演說。講座現場反應熱烈，亦有不少師生以線上線下形式參與。
講座中，黃輝回顧了自然語言處理（NLP）與機器翻譯（MT）技術的發展歷程，包括從早期的統計機器翻譯，到神經機器翻譯，再到當前生成式人工智能與大語言模型（LLMs）的興起。他亦分享了25年來自己在研究過程中的經驗與見解，以及介紹了其團隊研發的“葡中機器翻譯系統技術”，該項目曾於2012年及2022年榮獲澳門科學技術獎。
黃輝長期專注於NLP與MT的研究，曾在國際頂級期刊與會議上發表多篇研究成果，並於中國中文信息學會、亞洲自然語言處理聯合會等學術組織擔任職務。他亦是國際期刊IEEE/ACM Transactions on Audio, Speech, and Language Processing的副編輯。
“澳大學人研究講壇”由澳大研究服務及知識轉移辦公室舉辦，邀請傑出的澳大學人以通俗易懂的方式介紹其前沿研究成果，讓大眾了解研究創新的社會意義，以及與日常生活密切關聯的應用性。

UM scholar gives talk on how language technologies shape AI
The University of Macau (UM) held the 27th UM Scholar Research Forum today (22 September), where Wong Fai, professor in the Department of Computer and Information Science in the Faculty of Science and Technology and leader of the Natural Language Processing & Portuguese-Chinese Machine Translation Laboratory, gave a talk titled ‘From Words to Worlds: The Journey of Language Technologies in Shaping AI’. The talk was well attended, with many students and teachers joining online.
During the talk, Prof Wong provided an overview of the development of natural language processing (NLP) and machine translation (MT) technologies, from early statistical machine translation to neural machine translation, and the recent emergence of generative artificial intelligence and large language models (LLMs). He also shared his experiences and insights gained over 25 years of research and introduced the Portuguese-Chinese Machine Aided Translation System developed by his team.
