Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the establishment and accumulation of intelligent translation knowledge in the field of computer translation technology, and more particularly to a method for forming a dual statement pair and a forming apparatus thereof. Background of the invention
  • TM Translation Memory Technology
  • Figure 1A shows a conventional translation scheme using TM translation technology.
  • the TM translation mode compares (matches) the input original sentence with the original part of the corpus double statement pair. If the match is matched or the specified match rate is satisfied, the translated portion of the double sentence pair is output as the TM translation result.
  • Figure 1B shows an example of a sentence pair recorded by a conventional sentence-to-record method. That is, the original text is recorded in the left part, and the translation is recorded in the right part, separated by a separator.
  • the original text and the translation are regular text content, namely words (words), punctuation marks, and so on.
  • words words
  • punctuation marks and so on.
  • this kind of The role of sentence pairs is very limited. That is to say, in addition to the same sentence can give accurate translation results, it can not give accurate translation results for similar sentences.
  • TM improvements have emerged in recent years, such as the use of sentence patterns in TM technology solutions, the purpose of which is to cover more sentences with the sentence patterns stored in the sentence library.
  • the principle is to abstract the translated example sentence into a sentence pattern.
  • the sentence to be translated is first parsed and abstracted into a grammatical tree structure, and then the sentence is used to create the translation with the sentence to be translated (translation ).
  • This method actually returns to the old path of traditional MT technology.
  • the first reason is that abstracting an example sentence into a grammatical sentence is a time-consuming and laborious task, and it cannot be automated. At present, no practical sentence accumulation methods and tools have been seen.
  • the inventor of the present application based on years of research on human brain translation thinking and foreign language learning and memory, proposed a set of systems for simulating human brain memory and storing translation knowledge, namely Bodian intelligent knowledge base system, and Corresponding Super Intelligent Computer Translation Technology (TM++).
  • the sentence pair is not a simple original text plus translation form, nor is it an abstract sentence pattern as described above, but an instance-based patterned sentence pair.
  • the advantages of the model sentence to the translation theory are: 1. To embody and instantiate the complex abstract grammar for easy understanding and implementation; 2.
  • the pattern sentence is very suitable because it is The translation examples and the translated sentence patterns are integrated, which not only preserves the uniqueness of the specific translated sentence pairs but also the universality of the translated sentence patterns.
  • Figures 2A-2C and 3A-3C show some examples of instance-based patterned sentence pairs (referred to as patterned sentence pairs).
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a method of forming a patterned sentence pair and a forming apparatus therefor.
  • the patterned sentence pairs can be formed and accumulated quickly and efficiently.
  • the knowledge base of the intelligent knowledge base can be accumulated for all users, and the machine can automatically generate and accumulate intelligent translation knowledge while the user translates. This completely frees the traditional translation software from the language experts to develop translation rules or sentence patterns and is written or updated by software professional technicians, and will greatly accelerate the development and speed of the intelligent knowledge base. Therefore, it provides a viable technical solution for the early realization of high quality fully automatic machine translation.
