  • Patent number: 10496758
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, According to one embodiment, a machine translation apparatus includes a circuitry and a memory. The circuitry is configured to input a sentence of a first language, to segment the sentence to obtain a plurality of phrases, to search a translation model for translation options of a second language of each of the plurality of phrases, and to select top N translation options with high probabilities for decoding. N is an integer equal to or larger than 1. Furthermore, the circuitry is configured to combine the top N translation options of the plurality of phases to obtain a plurality of translation hypotheses, to search user history phrase pairs for the translation hypotheses, and to increase a score of a translation hypothesis existing in the user history phrase pairs. The memory is configured to store the score of the translation hypothesis.

  • Patent number: 6835092
    Abstract: A stacked electrical connector assembly (100) mounted on a main printed circuit board (PCB not shown) includes an insulative housing (1) defining at least two cavities (101, 111), a first and second array of conductive contacts (42, 2) received in the housing, a ground plate (3) disposed between the first and the second contacts, an internal PCB (41) arranged in a rear portion of the housing and an outer shell (5) substantially surrounding the insulative housing. The internal PCB includes a ground trace and a number of signal traces in a galvanic connection with the first array contacts. The ground plate includes a grounding claw (32) electrical connection with the outer shell and a grounding leg (31) coupling to the ground trace of the internal PCB.
