A GENERALIZED COMPUTER SYSTEM FOR LANGUAGE TRANSLATION,
Abstract
The study is intended to provide a generalized computer system which will implement translation of natural languages by means of automatic programming techniques. The objective includes translation of other languages into English. An examination was made of general linguistic theories that would lend themselves to both linguistic and operational interpretations. A series of models (axiomizations of a general translation theory) was considered in the course of the study. In each instance, German and English corpora were used in an attempt to interpret the model in terms of definite linguistic structures. Three interrelated activities were studied: mathematical, programming and linguistic research. (Author)
