Machine Translation System in Indian Perspectives

Problem statement: In a large multilingual society like India, there i s a great demand for translation of documents from one language to anoth er language. Approach: Most of the state government works in there provincial languages, whereas the central government's official documents and reports are in English and Hindi. Results: In order to have an appropriate communication ther e is a need to translate these documents and reports in the respective provincial languages. Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Machine Translation (MT) tools are upcoming areas of study the field of computational linguistics. Machine translation i s the application of computers to the translation o f texts from one natural language into another natura l language. It is an important sub-discipline of th e wider field of artificial intelligence. Conclusion/Recommendations: There are certain machine translation systems that have been developed in Ind ia for translation from English to Indian languages by using different approaches. It is this perspecti ve with which we shall broach this study, launching our theme with a brief on the machine translation s ystems scenario in India through data and previous research on machine translation.
