  Suppliers of Machine Translation Software

 

The following is a listing of MT suppliers ranked alphabetically
by company name. Not all the companies listed offer MT products.
Some did so in the past and others may be of related if marginal
interest.

This listing has been cross-indexed and each index entry
is linked back to the relevent section in this file:
1.. Index: Product names
2.. Index: Supplier names, ranked alphabetically
3.. Index: Supplier names, ranked by language pair

Many of the MT products listed below are bi-directional. For example,
where the language pair is shown as "English Spanish" then the
same program can translate from English into Spanish and from
Spanish into English. A uni-directional program translates only
from a source language into a target language, e.g. English Arabic.

The data is believed to be correct. We should be pleased to learn
of any omissions or errors.

BSO
The following text was kindly provided by Job M. van Zuijlen zuijlen@attglobal.net

BSO is a Dutch software development company that now operates under the name Origin (http://www.origin.nl) with offices all over the world. Distributed Language Translation (DLT) is the name of a machine translation research project initiated by, then, BSO. The main research effort was between 1985 and 1990 (I joined them in 1986). The distinctive feature of DLT was the use of Esperanto as an intermediate language (IL) and the idea that translation could be divided into two stages: from L1 into IL and then from IL into L2. The intermediate translation could be transmitted over a network to any number of workstations which would take care of the translation from IL into the desired language. Since the IL format would have been disambiguated at the source, it could itself serve as a source for further translation without human intervention.

Rank Xerox Research Centre
Address: Grenoble, France.
WWW: http://www.rxrc.xerox.com/
Product: Locolex was reported in The Times newspaper, (29 January 1997,
    Interface supplement, page 11), as ''a comprehensive aid for
    translation ... [which] ... looks at the context of words
    ... and finds appropriate case for ... [a] particular word.''

    According to Rank Xerox:
    "Locolex and TANS (Translation Aid Network Services)
    are tools to assist a foreign reader with the reading of
    a text. Instead of giving a poor translation of a whole
    paragraph like most concurrent technologies, these tools
    give a very precise translation of a word thanks to an
    analysis of the context. They are based on the same
    algorithms, only the implementation and the scope of the
    projects vary.
    "Locolex emphasizes the linguistic aspect: Macintosh-based,
    it is a self-contained application. The dictionaries used
    are: French to English, English to French, and English to
    German.
    "TANS has a different scope: It is a network tool based on a
    client-server paradigm, was developed in Tcl_Tk, and exists
    in three versions: one is a toolkit version (Tk_TANS) that
    enables other programs to use its functionalities.
    The second is an add-on to Word for Windows. The third is
    accessible through any browser on the WWW. The only
    dictionary used is French to English."
