Publication number: 20130191108Abstract: Disclosed is a method for translating text fragments displayed on a screen from an input language into an output language and displaying the result. Translation may use electronic dictionaries, machine translation, natural language processing, control systems, information searches, (e.g., search engine via an Internet protocol), semantic searches, computer-aided learning, and expert systems. For a word combination, appropriate local or network accessible dictionaries are consulted. The disclosed method provides a translation in grammatical agreement in accordance with grammatical rules of the output language in consideration of the context of the text.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 18, 2012Publication date: July 25, 2013Applicant: ABBYY SOFTWARE LTD.Inventors: Konstantin Anisimovich, Konstantin Zuev, Vladimir Selegey

Publication number: 20130191109Abstract: A method and computer system for translating sentences between languages from an intermediate language-independent semantic representation is provided. On the basis of comprehensive understanding about languages and semantics, exhaustive linguistic descriptions are used to analyze sentences, to build syntactic structures and language independent semantic structures and representations, and to synthesize one or more sentences in a natural or artificial language. A computer system is also provided to analyze and synthesize various linguistic structures and to perform translation of a wide spectrum of various sentence types. As result, a generalized data structure, such as a semantic structure, is generated from a sentence of an input language and can be transformed into a natural sentence expressing its meaning correctly in an output language.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 20, 2012Publication date: July 25, 2013Applicant: ABBYY SOFTWARE LTD.Inventors: Konstantin Anisimovich, Vladimir Selegey, Konstantin Zuev

Publication number: 20120201420Abstract: Methods for processing machine-readable forms or documents of non-fixed format are disclosed. The methods make use of, for example, a structural description of characteristics of document elements, a description of a logical structure of the document, and methods of searching for document elements by using the structural description. A structural description of the spatial and parametric characteristics of document elements and the logical connections between elements may include a hierarchical logical structure of the elements, specification of an algorithm of determining the search constraints, specification of characteristics of searched elements, and specification of a set of parameters for a compound element identified on the basis of the aggregate of its components. The method of describing the logical structure of a document and methods of searching for elements of a document may be based on the use of the structural description.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 17, 2012Publication date: August 9, 2012Inventors: Konstantin ZUEV, Diar TUGANBAEV, Irina FILIMONOVA

Publication number: 20120123766Abstract: The preferred embodiments provide an automated machine translation from one language to another. The source language may contain expressions or words that are not readily handled by the translation system. Such problematic words or word combinations may, for example, include the words not found in the dictionary of the translation system, as well as text fragments corresponding to structures with low ratings. To improve translation quality, such potentially erroneous words or questionable word combinations are identified by the translation system and displayed to a user by distinctive display styles in the display of a document in the source language and in its translation to a target language. A user is provided with a capability to correct erroneous or questionable words so as to improve the quality of translation.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 26, 2012Publication date: May 17, 2012Inventors: Konstantin Anisimovich, Tatiana Danielyan, Vladimir Selegey, Konstantin Zuev

Patent number: 8170371Abstract: A method for pre-recognition processing of forms with non-fixed fields. One or more objects that are present on a form can be reliably identified after conversion of the form into an electronic state. Objects are preliminarily assigned to act as reference points for spatial binding of data input fields or groups thereof. In the case of a text object as a reference point, text recognition is additionally performed. The spatial location of a reference point may be not fixed. A reference point may be described as alternative. Field identification may be performed either automatically or manually.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2003Date of Patent: May 1, 2012Assignee: ABBYY Software, LtdInventors: Konstantin Zuev, Ruslan Garashchuk
