Abstract: A translation method for properly recognizing and automatically translating a sentence containing an emphasized word including two or more successive identical characters. First, words in a source text to be translated are looked up in a dictionary (step S201) to determine whether the text includes an unregistered word (step S203). Then, it is determined whether an unregistered word contains successive identical characters (step S205). If it contains successive identical characters, the number of the characters is reduced (step S207) and determines whether a modified word thus obtained is contained in the dictionary (step S209). If it is determined that the modified word is contained in the dictionary, the unregistered word is determined as the modified word (step S215), the part of speech and the attribute of the modified word are determined (step S217), and the unregistered word is replaced with the modified word to make translation.

Abstract: A translation method reduces the time required for display of the translation of a web page. Original document data is obtained to display an original document on a computer. The original document data is examined for the presence of saved data. When the saved data is present, instruction data is generated for instructing the acquisition of the saved data, and the instruction data is transmitted to a client across a network. Translation data is obtained for the original document. The obtained translation data is transmitted to the client across the network. Before examining for the presence of the saved data, an acquisition is instructed for the translation data of the original document.

Abstract: A translation system limits the reduction in translation accuracy accompanying an increase in new words and phrases. The system is configured to extract a noun phrase from a document and select a category for the noun phrase. The system is further configured to generate a translation for the phrase and to register the phrase, together with its translation, on a categorized dictionary corresponding to the selected category.

Abstract: A translation method reduces the Lime required for display of the translation of a web page. Based on a translation request, a translation service server requests a translation engine translate an HTML document. The translation service server also extracts image tags from the HTML, and transmits the dummy tags to the browser based on the image tags. The browser requests image data based on the image tags, and obtains image data. The translation service server receives the translation from the translation engine, and transmits it to the browser. During the display rendering process for the HTML document based on the translation, the browser employs image data that has already been.

Abstract: To provide a highly accurate sentence segmentation process in natural language processing by estimating parts of speech of words in text to be processed. Dictionary data is used to perform a sentence segmentation process on a text to be processed. If it cannot be determined through a user of the dictionary data whether the text should be broken into sentences, the parts of speech of words constituting the text are estimated and a further sentence segmentation process is performed based on the result of the estimation.

Abstract: In a machine translation environment, a context-specific domain directory must sometimes be selected to provide a proper translation in context. A database for trigger patterns associated with specific domains is prepared. When a resource is to be translated, appearances of the pattern within the resource are detected. If appearance frequency for at least one domain exceeds a threshold value, the appearance frequency for that domain is compared to the appearance frequency for other domains. If the appearance frequency for the one domain is found to be significantly higher, the dictionary for that domain is selected for the translation.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method, apparatus and computer-readable medium for machine translation capable of performing automatic dictionary switching in a machine translation system using a system base dictionary which registers common words and at least one domain dictionary to translate from a first language to a second language. The method comprises: determining a compound word in the input source text by analyzing the source text; setting priority of a domain dictionary including the compound word higher than that of the system base dictionary, and creating a translated text in the second language using the domain dictionary having the higher priority.

Abstract: The present invention increases translation accuracy by translating a document in a translation mode, depending on a display format for the document. A translation system for translating a document comprises a specified portion extraction unit for extracting specified portions of the document which are specified to be displayed in predetermined display formats and a translation processing unit for translating contents of the specified portions in a noun phrase translation mode in which the contents are translated as noun phrases more preferentially in comparison with the other portions of the document.
