How Machine Translation Works. A whistle-stop tour from the past to the present and future

Author(s) / Creator(s)

van Genabith, Josef

Abstract / Description

Over the last few years machine translation has been making tremendous progress, so much so that for certain language pairs and genres human parity (and even super-human performance) has been claimed (and contested). In this talk van Genabith retraces the story of machine translation from rule-based, statistical to neural approaches (RBMT, SMT and NMT). The objective is to present the main ideas underpinning the approaches in accessible terms and, following this, provide a glimpse of what is currently in the labs.
