ABSTRACT

Knowledge-based interlingual machine translation systems produce semantically accurate translations, but typically require massive knowledge acquisition. Ongoing research and development at the Center for Machine Translation has focussed on reducing this requirement to produce large-scale practical applications of knowledge-based MT. This paper describes KANT, the first system to combine principled source language design, semi-automated knowledge acquisition, and knowledge compilation techniques to produce fast, high-quality translation to multiple languages.
