Google has just announced the implementation of neural technology engineeringtranslation (neural machine translation) in Google Translate for Greek.
In particular, the translation between English and Greek will be more accurate and syntactically more correct as we will now translate entire sentences instead of pieces - sentences. Of course this state-of-the-art technology uses machine learning.
For more information, read the following detailed Press Release.
The next time you use Google Translate, you may notice that the translation is more accurate and syntactically correct. This is because the words and sentences you translate from English to Greek and vice versa, are utilized and exploited by cutting-edge engineering of neural translation!
Neural machine translation is much more reliable than the old one system phrase-based because it now translates whole sentences at a time rather than parts of a sentence. (Of course, this whole process is based on artificial intelligence and machine learning, which is explained in Research blog Google).
This leads to translations that are more accurate and closer to the way people express themselves, especially when the meaning of an entire proposal is transferred.
The new features in the automatic translation of the Greek language are available on all platforms where Google Translate is: on iOS, on applications Android, at translate.google.gr and through search Google.
It will also be available to automatically translate pages in Chrome. Greek is now one of the languages that have been upgraded by Google and for which the services machine neural translation.
Google expresses its warm thanks to the thousands of Greeks who helped. Every contribution of users to the Community of Translation helps Google to improve.
