Two of the Flagship services of Jonckers

Enabling machines to learn and to translate: NMT

Neural Machine Translation (NMT) is a one of the fastest evolving, innovative technology that enables machines to learn and to translate through an artificial neural network. NMT translates a whole sentence at a time, rather than piece by piece. This allows the engine to use the broader context to select the most relevant translation, which it then rearranges to correct the grammar. Consequently, NMT provides an easier to read output as each sentence is more understandable.

NMT systems are built on deep learning methods, meaning that the system is taught to solve problems based on patterns in a data set, rather than written to a rigid set of instructions. Over time the quality of the output gets better and better as the machine begins to understand language structures.
