Area and the motherland.
The Centre is intended to complement the Chinese-Portuguese/Portuguese-Chinese
machine translation in the academic field. It has become an important scientific research
and application platform for the production of academic achievements and the collaboration
between multiple disciplines and entities. At this stage, the Centre is mainly engaged in
the research of advanced machine translation technology based on Chinese, Portuguese
and English, as well as the development of corresponding applications. It has made fruitful
