| 20080243481 | Large Language Models in Machine Translation - Systems, methods, and computer program products for machine translation are provided. In some implementations a system is provided. The system includes a language model including a collection of n-grams from a corpus, each n-gram having a corresponding relative frequency in the corpus and an order n corresponding to a number of tokens in the n-gram, each n-gram corresponding to a backoff n-gram having an order of n-1 and a collection of backoff scores, each backoff score associated with an n-gram, the backoff score determined as a function of a backoff factor and a relative frequency of a corresponding backoff n-gram in the corpus. | 10-02-2008 |

| 20080262828 | Encoding and Adaptive, Scalable Accessing of Distributed Models - Systems, methods, and apparatus for accessing distributed models in automated machine processing, including using large language models in machine translation, speech recognition and other applications. | 10-23-2008 |
| 20100004919 | OPTIMIZING PARAMETERS FOR MACHINE TRANSLATION - Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products, for language translation are disclosed. In one implementation, a method is provided. The method includes determining, for a plurality of feature functions in a translation lattice, a corresponding plurality of error surfaces for each of one or more candidate translations represented in the translation lattice; adjusting weights for the feature functions by traversing a combination of the plurality of error surfaces for phrases in a training set; selecting weighting values that minimize error counts for the traversed combination; and applying the selected weighting values to convert a sample of text from a first language to a second language. | 01-07-2010 |
| 20100004920 | OPTIMIZING PARAMETERS FOR MACHINE TRANSLATION - Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products, for language translation are disclosed. In one implementation, a method is provided. The method includes accessing a hypothesis space, where the hypothesis space represents a plurality of candidate translations; performing decoding on the hypothesis space to obtain a translation hypothesis that minimizes an expected error in classification calculated relative to an evidence space; and providing the obtained translation hypothesis for use by a user as a suggested translation in a target translation. | 01-07-2010 |

| 20080270109 | Method and System for Translating Information with a Higher Probability of a Correct Translation - A system with a nonstatistical translation component integrated with a statistical translation component engine. The same corpus may be used for training the statistical engine and also for determining when to use the statistical engine and when to use the translation component. This training may use probabilistic techniques. Both the statistical engine and the translation components may be capable of translating the same information, however the system determines which component to use based on the training. Retraining can be carried out to add additional components, or when after additional translator training. | 10-30-2008 |

| 20090108654 | Seating Element and Seating System - A seating element has an archable element with a first side to face an occupant of a seat when the seating element is installed in a seat and a second side opposite of the first side. A pneumatic arching element is arranged at the second side of the archable element. | 04-30-2009 |
