AppTek, a provider of human language technology “HLT,” solutions has released Chinese language for its hybrid machine translation “HMT” system.

According to company officials, AppTek’s supported languages are being migrated to its patent-pending Hybrid Machine Translation platform and at the same time AppTek is continuously introducing more new languages all through the year.In addition, AppTek's hybrid machine translation, which is a complete combination of statistical and rule-based methodologies, has been ranked the best for the last three years in an evaluation of machine translation systems by the National Institute of Standards and Technology.

AppTek's HMT solution is a true advancement in the field of machine translation and customers will be able to notice a significant improvement in accuracy, informativeness, and fluency. The HMT solution offers the same capabilities as offered by other rule-based or statistical MT systems in one strong platform which can run on a server or a detached laptop.

Michael Veronis the head of Business Development, AppTek said, "AppTek is the only human language technology provider to successfully capture the full capabilities of the machine translation market in one product.”

“The release of Chinese for our Hybrid Machine Translation system is unique in the way that its performance is as good as our other languages, rendering good BLEU scores, which allows us to provide optimal features of both statistical and rule-based approaches in the process of automated translation of large volumes of data and provide greater information fidelity in this language."
