METHOD OF AND A SYSTEM FOR TRANSLATION
First Claim
1. A translation system for translating source text from a first language to target text in a second language, the system comprising:
- a translation memory (TM) module storing translation segments;
the TM module being operable to generate a TM target text output in response to source text,a statistical machine translation (SMT) module configured to generate translations on the basis of statistical models, the statistical models each having a respective number of parameters derived from the analysis of bilingual text corpora;
the SMT module being operable to generate a SMT target text output in response to source text,an extractor configured to extract features from the TM target text output and the SMT target text output,a vector generator configured to generate a vector with a unified feature set derived from the extracted features and features associated with each of the SMT module and the TM module, anda recommender operable to read the vector and determine whether the TM target text output or the SMT target text output is optimum for post editing.

Abstract
A translation system for translating source text from a first language to target text in a second language. The system comprises a translation memory (TM) module that stores translation segments. The TM module is operable to generate a TM target text output in response to source text. A statistical translation machine (SMT) module is configured to generate translations on the basis of statistical models whose parameters are derived from the analysis of bilingual text corpora. The SMT module is operable to generate a SMT target text output in response to source text. An extractor is configured to extract features from the TM target text output and the SMT target text output. A vector generator is configured to generate a vector with a unified feature set derived from the extracted features and features associated with the SMT module and the TM module. A recommender is operable to read the vector and determine whether the TM target text output or the SMT target text output is optimum for post editing.

16. A method of for translating source text from a first language to target text in a second language, the method comprising:
-
generating a translation memory (TM) target text output in response to a source text input, generating a statistical machine translation (SMT) target text output in response to a source text input, extracting features from the TM target text output and the SMT target text output, generating a vector with a unified feature set derived from the extracted features and features associated with the SMT module and the TM module, and reading the vector for determining whether the TM target text output or the SMT target text output is optimum for post editing.
