| Abstract(in English) | In this paper, we describe a method to assess sentence simultaneous interpretation difficulty of sentences, using speech data with interpretations conducted by different interpreters. We evaluate the interpretations by automatic evaluation metrics, and then sort the sentence collection in descending order by the average evaluation value to each sentence. We then divide the sorted collection into several groups, and each group represents a difficulty level. We conduct an experiment to verify the feasibility of the method, and we report the result of this experiment in this paper. |
