Integrating Machine Translation with Translation Memory: A Practical Approach
The purpose of this work is to show how machine translation can be integrated into professional translation environments using two possible workflows. In the first workflow we demonstrate the real-time, sentence-by-sentence use of both rule-based and statistical machine translation systems with translation memory programs. In the second workflow we present a way of applying machine translation to full translation projects beforehand. We also compare and discuss the efficiency of statis-tical and rule-based machine translation sys-tems, and propose some ideas about how these systems could be combined with translation memory technologies into a unified translation application.
