The mistake severity scores, mistake type weights, and reports are based on this 1000-word amount. For example, a critical mistake with score of 20 with weight coefficient of 1 reduces the quality score by 20 per 1000 words (by 10 per 2000 words, accordingly, and so on).

Quality score reflects the number of mistakes made per 1000 words of translated text.

The system will randomly find the piece of text with corrected segments containing the indicated number of words. And the size of this text may differ depending on the percentage of corrections. E.g. when you select 300 words to evaluate, they may be found in a piece of text containing 500, 1000, or even 10000 words. You’ll just get your 300 words with corrections to classify mistakes, and the system will remember how many total words are contained in the selected piece. You’ll be able to see these numbers on evaluation page:

Quality score formula visualisation and interpretation

QSF.png

1. Account score limit
The highest possible score (100 by default). Can be set on this page: [Evaluation settings]
2. Mistake severity score
Score of mistake by its severity (for example, 1 point for minor and 5 points for major mistakes). Can be set on this page: [Mistake severities list]
3. Mistake type weight
Weight of a specific mistake type by specialization. Can be adjusted on this page [Mistake types list]
4. SUM
A sum of products of #2 and #3 for all the mistakes.
5. Project evaluation word count
Automatic word count: The value from the "Total source words" field in the "Evaluation details" section (not the Total source words of a file). Please see the Automatic vs. manual word count page.
Manual word count: The value from the "Evaluated source words" field (specified when starting the evaluation with a manual word count).
6. 1000
In the end, the result is always converted to 1000, a most optimal value.

The mistake severity scores, mistake type weights, and reports are based on this 1000-word amount. For example, a critical mistake with score of 20 with weight coefficient of 1 reduces the quality score by 20 per 1000 words (by 10 per 2000 words, accordingly, and so on).
