Interpreter's method and apparatus that a kind of machine is blended with human translation
Technical field
The present invention relates to computerized information automatically processes field, and in particular to the mouth that a kind of machine is blended with human translation Language interpretation method and device.
Background technology
The research and development of automatic translation system have been carried out 50 years --- in fact since 1940's electronics Computer has begun to computer utility in the exploration of voiced translation from being born.Since the eighties of last century latter stage eighties, People start the research for being devoted to voiced translation (Speech-to-speech Translation) technology.So-called voiced translation Computer is exactly allowed to realize the process from a kind of voice of language to the voiced translation of another kind of language.Which is envisioned substantially, allows Computer serves as the role translated between the speaker for holding different language as people.The language used due to speaker is general all It is the spoken language in daily life, and people is also just wishing that machine translation system can receive and realize turning over for any spoken utterance Translate, also, this fast-developing and raising wished with speech recognition technology and spoken language analyzing technology, have become no longer vast Boundless and indistinct imagination.Therefore, voiced translation is often referred to as Interpreter (Spoken Language Translation, SLT) again.
Interpreter is related to various subjects such as automatic speech recognition, machine translation, phonetic synthesis and technology, therefore has weight Big Research Significance.In the eighties of last century early stage nineties, along with the continuous improvement of speech recognition technology, Interpreter is gradually fluffy Suddenly grow up.With the continuous development of its core technology, Interpreter is no longer that the high-quality being defined in certain field is turned over Translate, and will be to realize the exchange between different language as target.Research in Interpreter lays particular emphasis on the following aspects:1) exist Session structure is excavated in interactively voiced translation;2) study written word different from spoken language;3) performance of processing system and Shandong Rod sex chromosome mosaicism.In recent years, it is with the foundation of statistical framework in speech recognition, more and more in machine translation and Interpreter System begin to use statistical method to be modeled.And traditional oral translation system, due to by technical limitations, Zhi Nengying Under some voice constrained environments, and the significant challenge of current techniques is how to solve real-life oral communication to ask Topic.Specific application scenarios are seeked advice from from international conference (including sports meet) informix service to travel information etc., therefore From from the perspective of society and economy, Interpreter (SLT) has very big dependency with the world of our this globalization.
Spoken message expresses a kind of main communication way as the daily exchange of people, the terseness of language performance and use The popularity of scope is increasingly subject to people's attention.Machine translation system of the exploitation based on spoken message contents processing, just In use and the embedded system platform that carries on be applied to develop for people one of practicality machine translation system it is important in Hold.But, the spoken Some features of itself cause the research and development of practicality oral translation system difficult.Interpreter's is main Difficulty is that, 1) in the real scenes such as spoken dialog, Internet chat, the sentence of input often lacks standardization, it is difficult to flutter catch which Inherent grammatical structure information, the problems such as the result for causing statistical translation is more stiff, stability is poor;2) statistical machine translation be with Data-driven, its foundation depended on for existence is bilingual data resource.And in current data accumulation, towards the bilingual of spoken language Language material (China and Britain) is quite deficient.Therefore at present, the oral translation system for being completely dependent on statistical method can not fully meet people The widespread demand of daily life.3) Interpreter is different from text translation, and its exchange for mainly completing the crowd of different language is asked Topic, therefore its requirement of real-time to translation is high, especially how to optimize translation flow in a network environment is to improve Consumer's Experience Key.
The content of the invention

Specific embodiment
To make the object, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention become more apparent, below in conjunction with specific embodiment, and reference Accompanying drawing, the present invention is described in further detail.
Referring to Fig. 1, the flow process of the Interpreter's method blended with artificial mass-rent translation according to machine translation of the present invention is such as Under:
S11:The voice of original language is input into by terminal unit, by the continuous speech of input with the automatic identification of voice, mark Automatic addition of point symbol etc. carries out cutting punctuate for core, the input text in units of sentence needed for obtaining translating;
S12:After each corpus of text input system, enter line retrieval first in translation database, if matched into Work(, exports the cypher text for retrieving, and jumps to step S17;
S13:If corresponding data cannot be retrieved, start Intelligent management module, by the complexity for calculating input sentence, And the level condition with reference to user decides whether to enable human translation, while data are sent into machine translation module;
S14:Based on the statistical machine translation method of level phrase, fusion forces the parameter training result of alignment to be translated Confidence level estimation;
S15:If it is determined that enable human translation, then the method translated using artificial mass-rent, and on backstage using visualization Terminal enables the text that interpreter completes sentence by sentence to translate;
S16:Comprehensive assessment is carried out according to degree of translation confidence to machine translation result and human translation result, output is preferably Cypher text result;
S17:The cypher text of output is generated into stay-in-grade voice output, vivid user feeling can be transmitted, can be very Solve well the actual demand of face-to-face real time translation.
Said method step is described in detail below by embodiment two.
The fragmentation processing method of continuous speech in step S11
In on-line continuous speech recognition, voice endlessly can be input in sound identification module.Although eigentransformation Can calculate in real time with the posterior probability of every frame voice, if but decoder and internal memory cannot bear long speech data. Therefore extremely important to the punctuate cutting of voice in on-line continuous speech recognition, it is not only the guarantee of system stable operation, and And the recognition performance to system has vital effect.Traditional on-line continuous speech recognition is according to the quiet length in voice Degree carrys out cutting.So cutting read aloud or news voice in have a reasonable effect, but run into natural voice and know Other effect will decline suddenly.Because in naturally speaking, a word intermediate hold is also the phenomenon of generally existing, and according to Quiet cutting will be made pauses in reading unpunctuated ancient writings where pause in cutting.Can so cause pause former and later two sound bites identification can all occur Mistake.Additionally, in naturally speaking, it is as the fluctuation of emotion causes many words continuously to be said, middle even not include one Individual pause.The method made pauses in reading unpunctuated ancient writings using quiet has no way of detecting this cutting, and then influences whether the recognition effect of voice.
Our on-line continuous speech recognition uses the cutting punctuate method with discrimination as core, and cutting is not Carry out under the precondition of loss discrimination.Such cutting method can be automatically sentenced to the punctuate in natural-sounding It is disconnected.
Fig. 2 shows that the present invention carries out the schematic diagram of sentence segmentation to character string " ABCDEFGH ".As illustrated in fig. 2, it is assumed that One section of voice, scans for according to acoustic model and language model scores, is as a result ABCDEFG.An ensuing character is H, it is considered to be to be required for carrying out cutting punctuate to have two kinds of situations in figure below.
Thinking in the case of the first herein should paths above in cutting, i.e. figure, then the probability of language model is:
Wherein w=w1w2....wnRepresent length as n character string, x represents x gram language models.Character string is in this example ABCDEFG, length are 7.PhIt is the historical probabilities of recognized character string ABCDEFG, this is the initial state of two kinds of situations.It is probability that recognized character string last character G is a tail.P(w1=H|<s>) be first and do not know Malapropism accords with H as the probability of the beginning of a new sentence.
Second situation is non-divided herein, be exactly in figure below a paths, the probability of language model is:
Wherein PhIt in formula (1) is the same to be.It is that character H follows the probability behind character G.
Probabilistic language model in the case of relatively two kinds, if P1> P2, then we just think herein should cutting, from H Start in addition in short.Otherwise the words is not over, formed behind new character strings ABCDEFGH of the H immediately G, then Identical process is carried out to character I below.This method is not only able to exclude the false-alarm that the pause in a word brings, and Can avoid do not have pause continuous speech in failing to report so that discrimination reach it is best.Other this cutting method is not Depend on it is quiet, so as to it also avoid the inaccurate mistake cutting for bringing of quiet detection.
In step S12, extensive translation database search method
The translation database stores the high-quality translation result through human translation or artificial check and correction.The data base exists Two tasks are assume responsibility in system:
When corpus of text is after fragmentation process, enter line retrieval first in translation database, if the match is successful, Then returning result immediately.Here matching is realized by the similarity calculated between sentence.So-called sentence similarity refers to two Individual sentence is worth for the real number between [0,1] in matching matching degree semantically, and value shows that more greatly two sentences are more similar.When When value is 1, show that two sentences are identical semantically;Value is more little, shows that two sentence similarities are lower, works as value For 0 when, show that two sentences are entirely different semantically.Here we are mainly using fusion semantic information based on vector space The TF-IDF methods of model calculate sentence similarity.Due to information such as the spoken grammatical structures for lacking specification, we are difficult to flutter and catch The syntactic-semantic structure of input text.Therefore, semantic information herein mainly includes the shallow-layer languages such as time, numeral, name entity Adopted information, and be replaced on this basis generation translation template to be input into text match.
As statictic machine translation system is that language material drives, its performance is inseparable with the language material being input into.Especially, I Translation database collect be real-time, language material on accurate line, for machine translation system, with this partial data The continuous increase of scale and perfect, systematic function will be continued to optimize.
In step S13, intelligent coordinated method
If input sentence is not retrieved in translation database, we obtain the intelligent coordinated module of system start-up, according to reality The classification of border user, the complicated dynamic behaviour result of comprehensive input text, decides whether to be accomplished manually translation by interpreter.
The user of the default pays the number of expense, is divided into free users, domestic consumer and (pays making for small charge User), three kinds of classifications of advanced level user's (user had higher requirements by the accuracy of system).
Fig. 3 illustrates the user's growth curve in the system envisioned 2 years futures for arriving.As seen from Figure 3, in exploitation just Phase, mainly receiving free users, build and improve based on intelligent translation platform, with the growth of number of users, combined with intelligent The optimization updating ability of transcription platform itself, increasing paying customer will be attracted.In addition, Intelligent management module is also controlled And preferably translation result is added in data base, to ensure the continuous updating of data base.Treat its build up to certain scale it Afterwards, the part language material can be added in statistical translation system, translation model and language model is updated, and then be caused whole Individual translation system keeps continuing to optimize with the injection of real-time language material.Therefore, with the growth of system processes data scale, data The translation duties proportion that the automatic module such as library searching and machine translation can be completed is stepped up, and this is to a great extent The cost of human translation can be reduced, system effectiveness is improved.
In step S14, based on the statistical machine translation method of level phrase, fusion forces the parameter training result of alignment to be entered Row degree of translation confidence is assessed.
For Interpreter, using based on synchronous context free grammar (synchronous context-free Grammar, SCFG) stratification phrase statistical machine method.Basic thought is from extensive bilingualism corpora to extract magnanimity Alignment phrase segment, as knowledge source " memory " on a storage medium.The input text gone out to speech recognition is utilized and is efficiently searched Rope algorithmic match phrase fragment is simultaneously combined into sentence to be translated.And a kind of fusion is set up based on pressure alignment model parameter instruction Experienced confidence calculations method, the translation that primary study translation probability characteristic is brought are uncertain, are finally each object language Translation result generate confidence level marking.
Statistical machine model based on stratification phrase is set up in synchronous context free grammar (synchronous Context-free grammar, SCFG), belong to the category of formalization syntax.Statistical translation system based on stratification phrase General characteristic with the statistical machine translation based on formalization syntax:The structure of formalization syntax is borrowed, so that turning over The process of translating is stratification, is structured.Therefore, the long range sequencing in sentence can be become local sequencing by it;And Can tree structure in introduce variable solve it is extensive the problems such as.Meanwhile, with the statistical translation system phase for introducing linguisticss syntax Have than, formalization syntax and do not need the advantages such as extra syntactic analysis resource, completely compatible phrase system.Especially, in mouth Language is talked with, and in the real scene such as Internet chat, input sentence is often lack of standardization, has certain difference with real written language sentence Away from this causes the performance of syntactic analysis to be greatly affected.If the system based on linguistic grammatical is built in such environment Meter machine translation system, its performance will be had a greatly reduced quality because syntactic analysis performance is low.But, the system based on formal syntax In such language environment, performance will not then be subject to too big impact to meter machine translation, because formal syntax model is in this side The face still advantage with phrase-based model.The level phrase translation side with the output of confidence level translation result is described below Method:
1) level phrase translation
Under the interpretative system based on level phrase, the task of decoder is to find optimum object language stringMeet
Wherein e represents object language string, and D is represented and derived the process for generating target strings through a series of.I.e. it is capable to Synergetic syntax derivation D of a generation original language string is found, the target language that the object language end of the synchronous syntax generates in D Speech string, is exactly final translation.It should be noted that find here be maximum probability derivation rather than probability Maximum object language string, because may have various derivations generate similarly object language string, finds general The maximum object language string calculation cost of rate is higher.
According to log-linear model, probability P (D) may be considered the log-linear combination of multiple features:
Wherein ΦiAnd λiIt is ith feature function and its corresponding weight.Except language model feature PLMIn addition, other The feature used can be write as the form of regular product:
Wherein X →<R, a>A series of context-free grammars used in representing level phrase system derivation, therefore P (D) can be rewritten is:
Traditional statistical translation system, such as Pharaoh, using the linear codec algorithm such as beam search, A*, although can To incorporate the language model of simple sequencing model and N-Gram, but the word order of translation result is always barely satisfactory.But be based on The translation system front end of level phrase combines the structural information of tree, and the decoding algorithm of rear end accordingly will also utilize the analysis of tree to calculate Method.So the present invention uses for reference the syntactic analysis method based on chart analysis, the decoder of CYK-Style is realized.
CYK algorithms are improved bottom-up shift-in-reduction algorithms.Can produce in decoding process substantial amounts of it is assumed that being Avoid searching for all of possibility, we employ stack architecture, and necessity is carried out in search procedure using different strategies Beta pruning.AddEdge functions are set up for the side that each to be entered line chart (chart), first checks for whether it can pass through threshold value (threshold) beta pruning, if check by if the side whether will merger (recombination) again, finally check that it is No energy passes through block diagram (histogram) beta pruning.The side of these three beta prunings has only been successfully passed, line chart could be finally stored into In.
2) fusion is based on the degree of translation confidence appraisal procedure for forcing alignment model parameter training
Under ordinary meaning, confidence level is to evaluate measuring for a correct probability, and it reflects what a certain particular event occurred The degree of reliability.In machine translation, it is expressed as under conditions of in advance without reference to answer, the translation result to giving input Assessment.Within the system, our puzzlements not merely with some translation system external informations such as original language/object language Various information fusion in translation process are also come in by degree, length etc., scoring of the more preferable simulation people to translation result.
Fig. 4 shows the schematic flow sheet of degree of translation confidence appraisal procedure in the present invention.As described in Figure 4, based on pressure In the degree of translation confidence appraisal procedure of alignment model parameter training, first with the parameter instruction for forcing alignment techniques to complete model Practice, and retain the information such as the probability in alignment procedure;Meanwhile, we are by puzzled degree and length of original language string S and target strings T etc. Knowledge is dissolved in the assessment of confidence level as feature.By machine learning, can by much information be fused to one it is unified In framework, and simulated target function to greatest extent.In the present system, we used support vector regression (Support Vector Regression, SVR) as Machine learning tools.This be due to SVR object function can well it is approximate I The artificial scoring of target-mock translation result that proposes.
In step S15, artificial mass-rent interpretation method:
1) artificial mass-rent translation
Mass-rent (Crowdsourcing), refers to that task is contracted out to by a company with freely voluntary form nonspecific Popular network way, be a kind of social logistics pattern based on the Internet, business operation each can be embedded in Link, forms new type of organization.This concept is the well-known IT magazines in the U.S.《Line》Propose, be referred to as after " long-tail is managed by industry By " after another important business concept.In tissue human translation, this link adopts mass-rent pattern for the invention, has organized Each passerby of certain Interpreter's ability, creates the social new things that everybody is benefited using group intelligence.
Although mass-rent is translated this concept and is suggested, also have and translate that speech, tiger are flutterred, the website such as shell performs the text of mass-rent pattern Chapter and books translation community, but the main Translation of these community-type online media sites is to liking the networks such as current political news, competitive sports The text message of upper real time communication, finds suitable original text generally by the senior online friend of some forums and website employee, and to " translation The level of group " online friend and the division of labor are held.Mass-rent translation in the invention towards be the mutual mouth of exchange in daily life Language information, and have passed through fragmentation process.Therefore, translate compared to the mass-rent of the penman texts such as news, the mouth that the invention is proposed Language mass-rent translation has following some advantage:
The content of spoken message expression is for the purpose of communication exchange in actual life, it is therefore desirable to the more translation of " hommization " As a result.Mass-rent translation can utilize the strength of colony, not only reduce the cost of research and development, operation, manpower, also allow translation result more Stick on nearly user's request.
The content of spoken message expression is related to many aspects such as the clothing of people, food, shelter, row, is used herein mass-rent translation, More amateur translation talents can be converged, the advantage of group intelligence is fully demonstrated.
In visualization terminal, what interpreter faced is the text message after fragmentation.Generally, interpreter is good at good to arranging Good problem provides suggestion, and provides translation answer for targetedly problem, therefore such setting is more beneficial for interpreter and enters Row in real time, is efficiently translated.
By the language material of fragmentation is included, on mobile terminal (ipad, mobile phone), carrying out translating, editing for interpreter, Last interpreter can be selected translation result with voice mode input terminal, realize the purpose of real time translation.
2) interpreter terminal
Text that interpreter complete sentence by sentence is enable to translate using visualization terminal on backstage, the invention reduces the difficulty of interpreter Degree, reduces the cost of human translation, while ensure that the demand of real time translation, is mainly reflected in the following aspects:
The text of fragmentation is directly displayed in visualization terminal on backstage, what interpreter faced is no longer tediously long, connects Continuous voice, the substitute is fragmentation and visual text message.On the one hand, the text of fragmentation is with sentence as list Position, interpreter no longer need the information for remembering many or even whole section, and reduce the demand to interpreter's synthesis abstract ability;It is another Input information is converted into visualText by aspect, and the text message that interpreter quickly and easily can will be seen that translates into target Language.This working method relaxes the demand to the various abilities of interpreter so that some " amateur " translation talents can also be fast Pass and incorporate, drastically increase the scope of application of system.
The word for needing human translation is highlighted by setting the different conditions of current task, such as can be used in terminal Different colours represent whether data are retrieved, if by machine translation and whether need human translation.When needing human translation When, it is possible to use it is highlighted to be different from other states.This method for being highlighted particular state allows interpreter side Just the translation sentence by sentence of text, is quickly completed, the difficulty of interpreter is reduced, the cost of human translation is reduced.
Finally due to our outstanding speech recognition systems, interpreter can select translation result is whole with voice mode input End, is automatically converted to word by its embedded speech recognition chunk.Here word for word typing translation result is no longer needed, people is reduced The time of work work, improve work efficiency.
In step S16, the method that comprehensive assessment is carried out to automatic translation and human translation:
After automatic translation and human translation is completed, all results are input into the module and carry out quality evaluation comprehensively output. The module is given a mark according to the confidence level of automatic translation, and the rank of each interpreter beats grading information, and uses for reference automatic translation evaluation mark Quasi- BLEU computational methods, carry out comprehensive assessment to the result of different interpretation methods, preferably result will return to phonetic synthesis mould Block.
