Validation of the consistency of automatic terminology translation

摘要

A method of determining the consistency of training data for a machine translation system is disclosed. The method includes receiving a signal indicative of a source language corpus and a target language corpus. A textual string is extracted from the source language corpus. The textual string is aligned with the target language corpus to identify a translation for the textual string from the target language corpus. A consistency index is calculated based on a relationship between the textual string from the source language corpus and the translation. An indication of the consistency index is stored on a tangible medium.
