Knowledge-guided machine translation for regulatory compliance in high-risk industries

Viveta Gene, Vilelmini Sosoni

Sets out how a knowledge layer guides machine translation for regulatory compliance in high-risk industries — where a mistranslated instruction, dosage, or safety warning carries real regulatory and human cost — and why grounding translation in structured domain knowledge, rather than relying on a larger language model alone, is what makes regulated translation dependable at scale.

Dual-Metric Compliance and Quality Evaluation of Knowledge Graph Mediated Translation in Regulated Domains: An Enhanced Architectural Framework

Viveta Gene, Vilelmini Sosoni

Introduces a dual-metric evaluation — compliance and quality scored separately — for knowledge-graph-mediated translation in regulated domains, with an enhanced architectural framework. On a controlled 30-error regulatory corpus (a 500-word retinol product description, EN→Greek/French), KGMT detected 100% of source-compliance violations while two LLM baselines detected 0%. The controlled-corpus result is peer-reviewed; how it generalizes to any given corpus is directional.
