Abstract
According to one embodiment, According to one embodiment, a machine translation apparatus includes a circuitry and a memory. The circuitry is configured to input a sentence of a first language, to segment the sentence to obtain a plurality of phrases, to search a translation model for translation options of a second language of each of the plurality of phrases, and to select top N translation options with high probabilities for decoding. N is an integer equal to or larger than 1. Furthermore, the circuitry is configured to combine the top N translation options of the plurality of phases to obtain a plurality of translation hypotheses, to search user history phrase pairs for the translation hypotheses, and to increase a score of a translation hypothesis existing in the user history phrase pairs. The memory is configured to store the score of the translation hypothesis.
