Machine translation (Mt) techniques for indian languages

Abstract

Machine Translation (MT) is the process of converting the text from one language (source) to another language (TL). MT draws the idea of linguistics, computer science, artificial intelligence, sociology, psychology etc. The linguistically rich country like India has the demand to develop a full-fledged MT system to convert the text across different languages. Though the research has been made on MT for the past 60 years, still it is considered to be a challenging task. Building a fully automatic MT system is extremely difficult. This paper deals with the various ideas in MT systems for Indian Languages. Advantages and limitations of some of the important Dravidian Language translation systems developed using MT techniques are discussed.
