[Poster Presentation] Improving the accuracy of machine translation of sentences including scientific terms
Kaoru Kato, Paik Incheon (Aizu Univ.) SC2022-14
Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Machine translation has long been a subject of research as a method of translation. In the past, dictionary-based machine translation and machine translation using statistical models were the mainstream methods, but today, neural machine translation using neural networks is the mainstream method. However, current machine translation methods sometimes produce mistranslations or unnatural translations when translating texts containing technical terms. Therefore, we focused on the field of science and aimed to improve the translation accuracy of sentences containing scientific terminology. We prepared a dataset of approximately 3 million common Japanese-English bilingual corpora and 120,000 Japanese-English abstracts of scientific papers from NTCIR. We used Transformer model for the architecture. The BLEU score used to evaluate machine translation performance was about 19.3 for the model trained on common data only, and 20.9 for the model trained on the abstracts of additional scientific papers, indicating an improvement in performance. Learning additional sentences in the field in which translation accuracy is to be improved was an effective method for improving the translation accuracy of sentences containing technical terms.
