AUTOMATED NATURAL LANGUAGE TRANSLATION

摘要

An automated natural language translation system takes source natural language textual statements (preferably in English) and translates them into a target natural language (preferably Japanese). The system also allows an operator to re-translate automatically selected portions of the source text. The system includes improvements directed: to providing more exact initial translations of writings with words having different translations in different fields; to designating certain grammar rules as controlling to eliminate undesirable translations; and to using probability values associated with some dictionary entries to eliminate undesirable translations.
