The Reality of Multi-Lingual Machine Translation
Original language description
Our book "The Reality of Multi-Lingual Machine Translation" discusses the benefits and perils of using more than two languages in machine translation systems. While focused on the particular task of sequence-to-sequence processing and multi-task learning, the book targets somewhat beyond the area of natural language processing. Machine translation is for us a prime example of deep learning applications where human skills and learning capabilities are taken as a benchmark that many try to match and surpass. We document that some of the gains observed in multi-lingual translation may result from simpler effects than the assumed cross-lingual transfer of knowledge. In the first, rather general part, the book will lead you through the motivation for multi-linguality, the versatility of deep neural networks especially in sequence-to-sequence tasks to complications of this learning. We conclude the general part with warnings against too optimistic and unjustified explanations of the gains that neural networ
