Key considerations

  • 1A terminology database (termbase) is your most valuable asset — embed it as a RAG index before considering fine-tuning.
  • 2Evaluate using BLEU, COMET, and human post-editing rates on a held-out test set.
  • 3Fine-tune separately per domain (legal, medical, marketing) — cross-domain training degrades quality.
