Machine Translation (statistical)

The basic idea› compare a corpus of words in one language with the

same corpus of words translated into another› words and phrases that share similar statistical

properties are considered equivalent

Machine Translation (statistical) – new model

New technique (Google)› model the structure of a single language and then

compare this to the structure of another language› the new trick is to represent an entire language using

the relationship between its words
