Debuts Real-Time Learning Translation Engine, Opens Gateway to 6,000+ Languages
Chattanooga, TN– June 2, 2014 – Scott Gaskill, President of Sovee, will announce a new development in translation technology at the Localization World Dublin 2014 conference to be held June 4-6 in Dublin, Ireland. The presentation, "Sovee Smart Engine 2.0: A Leap Beyond Base Moses Technology" will demonstrate how this new approach can rapidly open the door to worldwide translation. "There are more than 6,000 languages in the world today, and after 60 years of statistical Machine Translation, our industry has developed Machine Translation engines for only 150 of those languages," Mr. Gaskill notes. "Sovee decided it was time to take an entirely new approach to machine translation." "One of the challenges we faced was computer processing limitations. To build engines for more than 6,000 languages would require over 92 million servers, and that's before you start building custom engines for clients," Mr. Gaskill explains. "With the release of Smart Engine 2.0 this summer, it is now possible to process virtually unlimited simultaneous transactions with only a fraction of those servers."
Smart Engine 2.0 introduces the world's first self-learning engine for language.
"The Smart Engine 2.0 literally learns brand, industry and other translation preferences as you watch it," Mr. Gaskill adds. "It eliminates the need to create business rules or batch translation memories for preferences." Sovee's indigenous translators have already seen over 50% translation efficiency improvements, when using the new Sovee Smart Engine 2.0. Localization World brings together delegates who are engaged in the business of adapting products, services and communications to an international language or culture so as to appear native to that particular region. Speakers at the conference also include representatives from Adobe Systems, eBay, Google, IBM, LinkedIn, Microsoft, Spil
Games and other notable companies. The conference is produced by MultiLingual Computing, Inc. and The Localization Institute.
The keynote address will be delivered by Magnus Lindkvist, one of the world's leading and most respected futurists. Lindkvist works with corporations and governments aroundthe world and is the author of When the Future Begins: A Guide to Long-Term Thinking,
Everything We Know is Wrong and The Attack of the Unexpected.
