Database researchers paint big data as a defining challenge. To make the most of the enormous opportunities at hand will require focusing on five research areas.

Google's Neural Machine Translation System: Bridging the Gap between Human and Machine Translation

2016 · arXiv (Cornell University)

Neural Machine Translation (NMT) is an end-to-end learning approach for automated translation, with the potential to overcome many of the weaknesses of conventional phrase-based translation systems. Unfortunately, NMT systems are known to be computationally expensive …

Google’s Multilingual Neural Machine Translation System: Enabling Zero-Shot Translation

2017 · Transactions of the Association for Computational Linguistics

We propose a simple solution to use a single Neural Machine Translation (NMT) model to translate between multiple languages. Our solution requires no changes to the model architecture from a standard NMT system but instead …
