A computer-implemented method for leveraging computer aided input segmentations is provided. The computer aided input segmentations identify divisions in a source text. The division are utilized to translate the source text from a first language to a second language. In this regard, segmentation boundaries are designated within the source text based on the computer aided input segmentations, which determine the divisions. Each division is automatically translated into the second language to generate translated segments corresponding to the division. These translated segments are combined to generate a translated text.

Computer aided input segmentation for machine translation

Techniques for translating and presenting text in a structured document are provided. A structured document including text to be translated is received. At least one portion of the text to be translated is translated into at least one representation of translated text of a specific language. The translation is carried out in accordance with a prioritization schedule. Further, the representation of translated text is provided by at least first and second servers, the first server independently providing the representation of translated text of a first quality and the second server independently providing the representation of translated text of a second quality, the first quality being different than the second quality. As the text is translated, the representation of translated text is presented immediately when available.
