Title:
NEURAL NETWORK-BASED TRANSLATION METHOD AND APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/010455
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed in embodiments of the present invention are a neural network-based translation method and apparatus, said method comprising: acquiring an initial translation of a sentence to be translated, the initial translation containing unlisted words; splitting the unlisted words in the initial translation into characters, and inputting a character sequence formed by the characters which are acquired by splitting the words into a first multi-layer neural network; acquiring a character vector of each character in the character sequence by means of the first multi-layer neural network, and inputting all character vectors of the character sequence into a second multi-layer neural network; using the second multi-layer neural network and a pre-set common words database to encode all of the character vectors in order so as to acquire semantic vectors; inputting the semantic vectors into a third multi-layer neural network, decoding the semantic vectors by means of the third multi-layer neural network, and combining such with the initial translation of the sentence to be translated to determine a final translation of the sentence to be translated. The present invention offers the advantages of increasing the operability of translating unlisted words, lowering the translation costs of machine translation, and improving the translation quality of machine translation.
