Predicting the quality of machine translation has traditionally been addressed with language-specific models, under the assumption that the quality label distribution or linguistic features exhibit traits that are not shared across languages.

We propose approaches to Quality Estimation (QE) for Machine Translation that explore both text and visual modalities for Multimodal QE.

We report the results of the WMT18 shared task on Quality Estimation, i. e. the task of predicting the quality of the output of machine translation systems at various granularity levels: word, phrase, sentence and document.
