Intellego is a machine translation (MT) | Intellego is a machine translation (MT) initiative that seeks to unify existing open MT projects by providing a single platform for engine developers and a unified web service that hosts a number of different language pairs/engines/implementations in the back end. The Intellego platform will allow users to select from a number of open MT engines based on the most prominent MT methodologies in order to find the best target MT output for their on-the-fly translation. This will be accomplished by partnering with existing open MT projects and hooking into their infrastructures, freeing Mozilla of the requirement to develop and host MT engines and promoting the use of MT engines within the fragmented open ecosystem. | ||
MT users are limited to using engines that follow a single MT methodology for all language pairs and content types. Studies have shown that a one-size-fits-all approach in MT does not provide the user with optimal translation output. Users need a single access point to different MT engines following different MT methodologies that will produce the best quality output by selecting the right engine for the right language pair. Intellego seeks to further establish an open MT ecosystem, as we feel it is the best way to quickly provide high-quality MT services to users on the web at the lowest cost and in a way that engages the open source community. | MT users are limited to using engines that follow a single MT methodology for all language pairs and content types.
