Patent number: 11132518Abstract: A method and apparatus for translating speech are provided. The method may include: recognizing received to-be-recognized speech of a source language to obtain a recognized text; concatenating the obtained recognized text after a to-be-translated text, to form a concatenated to-be-translated text; inputting the concatenated to-be-translated text into a pre-trained discriminant model to obtain a discrimination result for characterizing whether the concatenated to-be-translated text is to be translated, where the discriminant model is used to characterize a corresponding relationship between a text and a discrimination result corresponding to the text; in response to the positive discrimination result being obtained, translating the concatenated to-be-translated text to obtain a translation result of a target language, and outputting the translation result.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2019Date of Patent: September 28, 2021Inventors: Chuanqiang Zhang, Tianchi Bi, Hao Xiong, Zhi Li, Zhongjun He, Haifeng Wang

Patent number: 11126800Abstract: Presented herein are embodiments of a prefix-to-prefix framework for simultaneous translation that implicitly learns to anticipates in a single translation. Within these frameworks are effective “wait-k” policy model embodiments that may be trained to generate a target sentence concurrently with a source sentence but lag behind by a predefined number of words. Embodiments of the prefix-to-prefix framework achieve low latency and better quality when compared to full-sentence translation in four directions: Chinese?English and German?English. Also presented herein is a novel latency metric that addresses deficiencies of previous latency metrics.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2019Date of Patent: September 21, 2021Assignee: Baidu USA LLC.Inventors: Mingbo Ma, Liang Huang, Hao Xiong, Kaibo Liu, Chuanqiang Zhang, Renjie Zheng, Zhongjun He, Hairong Liu, Xing Li, Hua Wu, Haifeng Wang, Baigong Zheng
