MACHINE ORGANIZED METHOD AND DEVICE FOR TRANSLATING A WORD ORGANIZED TEXT SOURCE INTO A WORD ORGANIZED TARGET TEXT

摘要

For translating a word-organized source text into a word-organized target text through mapping of source words on target words, both a translation model and a language model are used. In particular, alignment probabilities are ascertained between various source word & target word pairs, whilst preemptively assuming that alignment between such word pairs is monotonous through at least substantial substrings of a particular sentence. This is done by evaluating incrementally statistical translation performance of various target word strings, deciding on an optimum target word string, and outputting the latter.
