Samsung Showcases Award-Winning Machine Translation at WMT

Samsung Award-Winning Machine Translation at WMT

Samsung’s research and development (R&D) hub has converted its effort into excellent Award-Winning artificial intelligence-based (AI) Machine translation technology….!! 

Samsung Electronics joined the ranks of researchers from all over the world to discuss new and innovative ways to understand human language using machines and computer programs, at the Workshop on Machine Translation (WMT). Which refers to the biggest event for machine translation research (WMT).

Samsung showcases Award-Winning Machine Translation

In a competition between scientific groups and laboratories to compare the quality of their translation tools, Samsung Research and Samsung R&D Institute Poland (SRPOL) participated. Teams from all over the world participated in the eight machine translation task competitions, from those representing widely known companies to research groups from various universities.

Aiming at the evaluation systems for translating sentences, Samsung Research Global AI Center’s Language Lab participated in the Biomedical Translation task. That task comprises 14 language pairs, including English, French, German and Spanish. The team won first prize for effectively translating two language pairs: English → Spanish and Spanish → English. This was a particularly impressive feat due to the biomedical field’s frequent use of domain terminology.

In the case of domain-specific translation, one of the big factors that determine translation quality is terminology translation. Even with the same word, the translated word may vary depending on the domain, and compared to general terms, technical terms are used less frequently, making it difficult to learn.

There are surely some limitations in consideration, Samsung Research Global AI Center’s Language Lab improved domain-specific translation performance by incorporating soft-constrained terminology translation. Which provides the terminology constraints of the target language as input with source sentences like a hint, and improved the domain terminology to be reflected in translation results as much as possible.

On specific domain translation, Samsung Research is conducting research. Which includes providing patent translation services on Samsung Research’s translation service “SR Translate.”
