The long-term goal of artificial intelligence is to let the machine accomplish tasks that can only be done by human beings. Therefore, in addition to being the artificial intelligence hub, the application of artificial intelligence is particularly important for the machine to help humans translate the language. Now let's take a look at how artificial machine translation is revolutionary behind the artificial intelligence fanaticism!
Artificial intelligence and machine translation
Since last year, artificial intelligence has received unprecedented attention, from the bold predictions of artificial intelligence by Musk and Hawking, to the strong artificial intelligence characters appearing in movies such as Superchasing and Mechanical Ji. To the fact that many tech giants frequently publish research results in the field of artificial intelligence, there has never been so much fanaticism and discussion in this field in history.
But the heat will eventually retreat. When we really return to the industry, products and user needs, we need to understand in addition to those sci-fi imaginations and predictions. Based on the existing research progress, artificial intelligence can bring us something truly valuable. To help us solve practical needs.
For example, we can get better search results; the voice assistant on the phone gives us a new, more labor-saving way of human-computer interaction; the computer can read and identify the content in the image. In addition, artificial intelligence has a very important application area, and it is also a tool that can change the way the world communicates - machine translation.
The importance of language and machine translation
The reason why machine translation is important is because of the importance of language to human beings. There is a story in Biblical Genesis, when humans united to build the Tower of Babel, which hopes to spread the name of the tower. In order to stop human plans, God allows humans to speak different languages, so that human beings can't communicate with each other, plans fail, and humans are scattered from time to time.
The science fiction writer Stephenson also called the language the lowest structure of the human brain in the famous science fiction "Avalanche", which played a vital role in the human spirit. Lera Boroditsky believes that the language we use influences our perception of the world and shapes our behavior and thinking patterns. Alan Yu calls it "language shaping the world view."
Different languages ​​bring about cultural diversity and have a decisive influence on each individual. But the inconvenience caused by the existence of multiple languages ​​in the world is also obvious. It affects the most basic needs of human beings - communication.
Language is the embodiment of human intelligence and the basic ability of human beings to distinguish it from other creatures. The long-term goal of artificial intelligence is to let the machine accomplish tasks that were previously only possible by human beings. Therefore, in the specific application of artificial intelligence, how to make the machine help humans to translate the language is particularly important.
The emergence and development of machine translation
Machine translation has long been recognized as one of the most difficult topics in the field of artificial intelligence. Let the machine understand the language and realize the translation between different languages. It is not only the technical dreams pursued by several generations of scientists, but also the beautiful wishes of the general public to realize free communication.
In Star Trek: Enterprise, there is a scenario in which Starship Communications Commander Sato Sat uses the translator to invent the linguacode matrix by integrating the translator into the AC pin worn by the Starship personnel or implanting it into the ear. People in the language can communicate freely. This is the ideal machine translation.
Machine translation is one of the earliest computer applications that people envisioned, and was proposed by Weaver in 1949. The development of machine translation technology has always been closely related to the development of computer technology. From early dictionary matching, to dictionary translation combined with linguistic expert knowledge, to corpus-based statistical machine translation, with the improvement of computer computing power and the explosive growth of multi-language information, machine translation technology has gradually stepped out of the ivory tower. In the past 10 years, it has provided real-time and convenient translation services for ordinary users. In recent years, many technology giants have also announced products or services related to machine translation.
Reasons for breakthroughs in machine translation
The first is the emergence of deep learning (analog neural network) technology. The core of a deep learning-based translation system is a deep neural network with numerous nodes (neurons). After a sentence of a language is vectorized, it is passed to the network layer and converted into a representation that the computer can "understand", and then through multiple layers of complex conduction operations to generate a translation in another language.
The achievements of the technology giants in machine translation are inseparable from their layout and accumulation in the fields of natural language processing and deep learning. The second is the accumulation of massive data. Academician Ni Guangnan compares big data to the “fourth scientific paradigm†and calls it “a powerful toolâ€. The accumulation of data is a unique advantage for search giants, and it has become a necessary condition for progress in machine translation.
The significance of machine translation applications
For artificial intelligence, what we are most concerned about now is the application scenario of the technology, and in what ways can we solve our practical needs. For machine translation, whether it is the breadth of its application or the importance of its function, it has an inestimable imagination. Fortunately, we can already see the widespread use of machine translation in the future from the products released by these technology companies.
Different languages ​​cause obstacles to information exchange. The emergence of the Internet has flattened the world, which is more conducive to the flow and sharing of information, but further, we do not only need to obtain information, but also to read this information, which has an impact on the exchange of information between different languages. Increased the cost of information exchange. The emergence of machine translation has solved this problem for all of us. In addition to written information, the combination of machine translation and speech recognition technology can provide real-time and convenient translation for voice calls.
For each user, when traveling abroad, we can use the APP to communicate with the locals in real-time, and recognize the signs and menus by taking photos. The foreign websites can also be translated into the national language in time. In terms of industry, the emergence of machine translation can have a positive impact on industries such as Internet education, tourism, finance, media and foreign trade.
At the national level, the meaning of machine translation is also very important, which is why China, the United States, Japan and the European Union have invested heavily in machine translation.
Recently, a major project dedicated to the “One Belt and One Road†strategy of the country and the cooperation with Macao to create a “China-Portugal Business Service Platform†– the “Chinese-Portuguese Machine Translation Joint Laboratory†was officially launched.
On October 11, 2016, Portuguese Prime Minister Costa was unveiled at the Macau Polytechnic Institute for the Joint Laboratory of Chinese-Portuguese Machine Translation. The Chinese-speaking language CEO Yu Yang represented the three parties in a detailed introduction to the "Chinese-Portuguese Machine Translation Joint Laboratory". The Chinese and Portuguese machine translation engine version debuted, making it the best Chinese and Portuguese machine translation engine in the world.
