XTM Cloud 13.8

Metrics factor

For each of the following types of matched segment there is a price and duration factor:

  • Non translatable.

  • ICE matches.

  • 100% leveraged matches.

  • TM fuzzy matches for three categories (75% - 84%, 85% - 94%, 95% - 99%).

  • Repetitions.

  • In-document fuzzy matches for three categories (75% - 84%, 85% - 94%, 95% - 99%).

  • Machine translation.

Using each factor and the text count, XTM Cloud calculates a global metrics factor according to the following formula.

Global metrics factor = Sum of (text type count/total text count * type factor)
