Why is it you are interested in machine translation?
I am majored in Natural Language Processing, and after taking a course on Machine Translation, I became intrested in it. It sits in the center of many NLP techniques, and has a very promising application in real life.
2 years ago, I started to intern in a statistical machine translation team of an Internet company. Since then, I began to be in deeper touch with the classic IBM models, the n-gram language models, various decoding algorithms, and many excellent open source toolkits. I was greatly attracted by the ideas and applications of machine translation. Reading the papers and making the toolkits to work properly brought me so much fun, that I still remember the sleepless night thinking about the nerual network language model.
A language is such a complicated system, that translating a sentence from one language to another has always been a challenging task. On the other hand, with the translation need drastically growing, developing better machine translation systems can also benifit the society.
