Abstract
Exemplary embodiments relate to techniques for improving machine translation systems. The machine translation system may apply one or more models for translating material from a source language into a destination language. The models are initially trained using training data. According to exemplary embodiments, supplemental training data is used to train the models, where the supplemental training data uses in-domain material to improve the quality of output translations. In-domain data may include data that relates to the same or similar topics as those expected to be encountered in a translation of material from the source language into the destination language. In-domain data may include material previously translated from the source language into the destination language, material similar to previous translations, and destination language material that has previously been the subject of a request for translation into the source language.
