Fully Automatic High Quality Translation Of Restricted Text, Uwe Muegge

Uwe Muegge

Direct machine translation is the least sophisticated approach to automated language processing. Unlike rules-based systems like Systran, direct machine translation systems do not perform a grammatical analysis of the source sentence. Also, direct machine translation systems have no concept of inflection. In fact, all these systems do is perform a word-for-word substitution, which is exactly what we were looking for.
