TRANSLATION METHOD AND TRANSLATION SYSTEM FOR TRANSLATING INPUT EXPRESSION INTO EXPRESSION IN ANOTHER LANGUAGE

摘要

A translation system includes translation subsystems by a plurality of translation policies with different translation output tendencies, performs forward translation and reverse translation by a consistent translation policy, and ranks the plurality of translation policies based on a similarity between the reverse translation sentences and the original sentence. As a result, a translation policy that best matches each input object to be translated is selected from the plurality of translation policies for each input sentence and, as a consequence, it is possible to cover a wide range of natures of sentences to be translated.

1. A translation method comprising:
obtaining an original sentence to be translated; performing bidirectional translation to obtain a translation sentence corresponding to the original sentence by performing forward translation and obtaining a reverse translation sentence from the translation sentence by performing reverse translation, consistently for each of a plurality of translation policies; ranking the translation policies based on a degree of similarity between each of the reverse translation sentences by each of the plurality of translation policies and the original sentence; and displaying the each of translation sentences by each of the plurality of translation policies in a state in which each translation sentences is related to the ranking, wherein the forward translation and the reverse translation are performed consistently for each translation policy.
