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
