Study Notes
Machine Translation Systems
- The core part of machine translation systems is the sequence-to-sequence model, which takes in input and generates output in another language.
Types of Translation
- Machine translation systems can handle other types of translation apart from natural language translation, including speech-to-text, text-to-speech, and image-to-text.
Sequence-to-Sequence Tasks
- The most popular sequence-to-sequence task mentioned is neural machine translation, which uses neural networks to learn the mapping between input and output languages.
Commercial Systems
- Google Translate and DeepL are commercial systems mentioned as surprisingly good at machine translation.
Definition of Machine Translation
- From now on, 'machine translation' refers to the use of computer software to translate text or speech from one language to another.
