Abstract

Technology is disclosed for mining training data to create machine translation engines. Training data can be mined as translation pairs from single content items that contain multiple languages; multiple content items in different languages that are related to the same or similar target; or multiple content items that are generated by the same author in different languages. Locating content items can include identifying potential sources of translation pairs that fall into these categories and applying filtering techniques to quickly gather those that are good candidates for being actual translation pairs. When actual translation pairs are located, they can be used to retrain a machine translation engine as in-domain for social media content items.
