  • Patent number: 10394962
    Abstract: Systems and method are disclosed for dynamically creating a translated virtual website based on a machine translation of an existing website without adding any code to the source website. In one exemplary embodiment, an extension to a URL is recognized as requesting a translated website, and the request is routed to an MT server. The original-language content is retrieved, translated, and returned to the user system without any further action by the user. In a further exemplary embodiment, a secure connection can be established to enable translation of non-public websites. In a further exemplary embodiment, a crawler can index the translated website. In a further exemplary embodiment, an RSS feed returns translated content.

  • Patent number: 10311148
    Abstract: A method for machine translation, comprising receiving a source string in a source language, an indication of a target language, and user identification information. The method includes using the user identification information to identify at least one memory with user-specific translation data. The method includes tokenizing the source string, using at least one processor, to produce a tokenized source string comprising any unique temporary textual elements associated with corresponding target textual elements during tokenization. The method includes obtaining a translated string from a translator, the translated string being at least a partial translation of the tokenized source string and including all of the unique temporary textual elements. The method includes generating an output string using at least one processor, the generation comprising replacing all of the unique temporary textual elements in the translated string with the associated target textual elements.
