Zusammenfassung

We present TerrorCat, a submission to the WMT 12 metric sharedtask. TerrorCat uses frequencies of automatically obtained translation error categories as base for pairwise comparison of translation hypotheses, whichis in turn used to generate a score for every translation. The metric shows high overall correlation with human judgements on the system level and more modest results on the level of individual sentences.
