MQM - Multidimensional Quality Metrics

Multidimensional Quality Metrics (MQM) is a framework for analytic Translation Quality Evaluation (TQE). It can be applied to both human translation and machine translation. As part of a quality management system, MQM can be used to identify quality issues in translation products, classify them against a shared, open and standardized error typology, and generate quality measures that can be used to gauge how well the translation product meets quality requirements.
