Great! So what type of machine translation?
That’s where we come in…
The Iconic Ensemble Architecture™
The most appropriate solution for the task at hand
The most appropriate solution for the task at hand
The Iconic Ensemble Architecture™
Neural
Real-world languages, content
Chinese to English patents, mature production engine, highly tuned.
Doing it right
Apples to apples comparison
Access to same training data, test data, including all of the ugly parts.
Effective qualitative evaluation
No one-size-fits-all, so what MT good and what and where does it fall down?

Neural MT works – and it’s good!
It is not a silver bullet
+word order+agreement- omitting phrases
+terminology+error free output- sentence structure
Enhancing the Ensemble Architecture…
…with Neural MT – the best of both worlds
