http://www.statmt.org/moses/“Moses is a statistical machine translation system that allows you to automatically train translation models for any language pair. All you need is a collection of translated texts (parallel corpus). An efficient search algorithm finds quickly the highest probability translation among the exponential number of choices.”

Who’s using Moses?

I heard many companies in the valley and Europe are building their solutions around it, and Google is also one of the companies using it. However, I heard it is very complicated to set it up and needs to build web services around it to make it more user friendly. Also in Europe there might be some companies in the near future that will be providing consulting services or even solutions using this system.

As more and more companies are adapting MT as their new sources of cost cutting and translation improvement tool - although I heard there has been some improvement but not obvious groundbreaking innovation around it for a long time, I think it will provide MT community with fresh impetus for better future development prospects.
