20100070261 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETECTING ERRORS IN MACHINE TRANSLATION USING PARALLEL CORPUS - A method for automatically detecting errors in machine translation using a parallel corpus includes analyzing morphemes of a target language sentence in the parallel corpus and a machine-translated target language sentence, corresponding to a source language sentence, to classify the morphemes into words; aligning by words and decoding, respectively, a group of the source language sentence and the machine-translated target language sentence, and a group of the source language sentence and the target language sentence in the parallel corpus; classifying by types errors in the machine-translated target language sentence by making a comparison, word by word, between the decoded target language sentence in the parallel corpus and the decoded machine-translated target language sentence; and computing error information in the machine-translated target language sentence by examining a frequency of occurrence of the classified error types. | 03-18-2010 |
20100094615 | DOCUMENT TRANSLATION APPARATUS AND METHOD - A document translation apparatus includes a document processing module for analyzing associative relations between nouns or noun phrases within an input document to be translated to generate analysis information on texts; and a document translation module for selecting target words for the respective texts in reference to the text analysis information to generate morphemes corresponding to the target words, thereby producing a translated document corresponding to the input document. | 04-15-2010 |
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 |

20090030671 | Machine translation method for PDF file - Disclosed is a machine translation method for a PDF file. A machine translation device extracts source language text and non-text from the input source language PDF file through image transformation, corrects the extracted source language text by using the source language text extracted from text information, restores a part that is contextually separated by the non-text from among the extracted source language text, generates a source language XML/HTML file by rearranging the extracted text and non-text so as to satisfy the contextual flow of the source language PDF file, separates source language text from a tag of the source language XML/HTML file, generates target language text by using translation knowledge and a transformation engine specified for the technical field corresponding to the source language PDF file, inserts the translated target language text other than source language text into XML/HTML file, and transforms the generated target language XML/HTML file into a target language PDF file to be output. | 01-29-2009 |
20090043564 | Method and apparatus for constructing translation knowledge - The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for constructing translation knowledge to be used in a translator. According to the invention, a source-language sentence and a target-language sentence are converted by receiving the source-language sentence and the target-language sentence corresponding to the source-language sentence and attaching a prototype, a part-of-speech, relative position information, and syntactic information in a base phrase to each morpheme of the source-language sentence and the target-language sentence. Then, word alignment and syntactic alignment are performed in the converted source-language sentence and target-language sentence, thereby extracting translation knowledge on words and syntaxes, translation knowledge on a subcategory of a bilingual inflected-word, and translation knowledge on a bilingual sentence pattern based on the results of the word and syntactic alignment. | 02-12-2009 |
20090063128 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR INTERACTIVE MACHINE TRANSLATION - Provided are a device and method for interactive machine translation. The device includes a machine translation engine having a morphological/syntactic analyzer for analyzing morphemes and sentences of an original text and generating original text analysis information, and a translation generator for generating a translation and translation generation information on the basis of the original text analysis information, and a user interface module for displaying sentence structures of the original text and the translation, and a relationship between the original text and the translation to a user on the basis of the original text analysis information and the translation generation information, and for receiving corrections to the original text or the translation from the user. The device and method provide a user interface whereby the user can effectively recognize and correct a mistranslated part and a cause of the mistranslation, and rapidly provides a re-translated result according to the correction. Thus, it is possible to perform high-quality translation which satisfies the user. | 03-05-2009 |
