20100138210 | POST-EDITING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CORRECTING TRANSLATION ERRORS - A post-editing apparatus for correcting translation errors, includes: a translation error search unit for estimating translation errors using an error-specific language model suitable for a type of error desired to be estimated from translation result obtained using a translation system, and determining an order of correction of the translation errors; and a corrected word candidate generator for sequentially generating error-corrected word candidates for respective estimated translation errors on a basis of analysis of an original text of the translation system. The post-editing apparatus further includes a corrected word selector for selecting a final corrected word from among the error-corrected word candidates by using the error-specific language model suitable for the type of error desired to be corrected, and incorporating the final corrected word in the translation result, thus correcting the translation errors. | 06-03-2010 |
20100138214 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR APPLYING TRANSLATION MEMORY IN AUTOMATIC TRANSLATION SYSTEM - A translation-memory application method for automatic translation includes: generating TM-expanded forms by applying TM expansion rules respectively to source sentences whose morphemes have been analyzed; storing in an expanded TM database translated sentences corresponding to the generated TM-expanded source sentences; analyzing morphemes if an input sentence does not match any of the source sentences stored in basic TM database; generating a TM-expanded form by applying pertinent ones among the TM expansion rules to the input sentence whose morphemes have been analyzed; and producing, if the TM-expanded input sentence matches one of the TM-expanded source sentences stored in the expanded TM database, a translated output corresponding to the matched TM-expanded source sentence. | 06-03-2010 |
20110060583 | AUTOMATIC TRANSLATION SYSTEM BASED ON STRUCTURED TRANSLATION MEMORY AND AUTOMATIC TRANSLATION METHOD USING THE SAME - Provided are an automatic translation system based on structured translation memory and an automatic translation method using the same. In the automatic translation system, a translation memory establishment module changes a predetermined language pattern into a part translation pattern and registers the changed part translation pattern in a structured translation memory. A sentence unit translation module performs a translation of the sentence unit on an input sentence on the basis of the translation memory. A part combination translation module analyzes a structure of a language pattern less than the sentence unit which is included in the input sentence, searches the registered part translation pattern which is matched with the analyzed language pattern on the basis of the translation memory, and combines the searched part translation pattern to output a translation corresponding to the input sentence. | 03-10-2011 |
20110066421 | USER-INTERACTIVE AUTOMATIC TRANSLATION DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MOBILE DEVICE - A user-interactive automatic translation device for a mobile device, includes: a camera image controller for converting an image captured by a camera into a digital image; an image character recognition controller for user-interactively selecting a character string region to be translated from the digital image, performing a character recognition function on the selected character string region based on an optical character reader (OCR) function and character recognition information to generate a text string; and user-interactively correcting errors included in the text string. Further, the user-interactive automatic translation device includes a text transmission controller for transmitting the error-corrected text string; and an automatic translation controller for receiving the error-corrected text string from the text transmission controller, performing a morpheme analysis, tagging, a structure analysis, a structure conversion, and a vocabulary conversion on the text string to generate a translation of the text string based on a grammar of a target language. | 03-17-2011 |
20110131032 | HYBRID TRANSLATION APPARATUS AND METHOD THEREOF - A hybrid translation apparatus includes a source language input unit for generalizing an input source language sentence for each node; a statistics-based translation knowledge database(DB) for storing learning data generalized for each node to be acquired; a first translation result generating unit for transforming the source language sentence generalized for each node into a node expression using the statistics-based translation knowledge to generate a first translation result; and a second translation result generating unit for repeatedly performing the generation of a target word for each node on the first translation result using pattern-based knowledge to generate a second translation result as target words for the respective nodes. Further, the hybrid translation apparatus includes a pattern-based translation knowledge DB for using in the pattern-based translation; and a translation result combining unit for combining the first translation result and the second translation result to output a target language sentence. | 06-02-2011 |
20110144974 | FOREIGN LANGUAGE WRITING SERVICE METHOD AND SYSTEM - A foreign language writing service method includes: recognizing, when a mixed text of foreign language portions and mother tongue portions is entered by a learner, the mother tongue portions from the mixed text; translating the mother tongue portions; combining a mother tongue translation result with the foreign language portions of the mixed text to generate a combined text; and providing the learner with the combined text of the mother tongue translation result and the foreign language portions of the mixed text. | 06-16-2011 |
20120116749 | AUTOMATIC TRANSLATION DEVICE AND METHOD THEREOF - Provided are an automatic translation device and a method thereof. The automatic translation device includes: a character string error correcting unit correcting an error of an input text; a language simplification processing unit substituting the input text with a simplified input text by applying context based constraints and rules corresponding thereto; and an automatic translation unit translating the simplified input text into an output text. As a result, it is possible to ultimately improve automatic translation quality by mitigating inconvenience of an input text writer due to restriction of a vocabulary using list and a text configuring rule. | 05-10-2012 |
20130030790 | TRANSLATION APPARATUS AND METHOD USING MULTIPLE TRANSLATION ENGINES - Disclosed is a translation apparatus and method using multiple translation engines. The translation apparatus using the multiple translation engines may include a structure analysis unit to analyze a structure of an original sentence, a sentence receiver to receive, from translation engines, translations of the original sentence, and a sentence determining unit to determine one of the received translations to be a translation result based on performance information for the translation engines corresponding to the structure of the original sentence. | 01-31-2013 |
20140136212 | SPOKEN DIALOG SYSTEM BASED ON DUAL DIALOG MANAGEMENT USING HIERARCHICAL DIALOG TASK LIBRARY - The present invention relates to a spoken dialog system and method based on dual dialog management using a hierarchical dialog task library that may increase reutilization of dialog knowledge by constructing and packaging the dialog knowledge based on a task unit having a hierarchical structure, and may construct and process the dialog knowledge using a dialog plan scheme about relationship therebetween by classifying the dialog knowledge based on a task unit to make design of a dialog service convenient, which is different from an existing spoken dialog system in which it is difficult to reuse dialog knowledge since a large amount of construction costs and time is required. | 05-15-2014 |
