Deep Learning

Deep learning is a subset of machine learning that involves neural networks with many layers. These networks can learn complex patterns in data, making them suitable for tasks like machine translation.

Deep Learning Architecture

Machine Translation

Machine translation is the process of automatically translating text from one language to another. It has been around for a while, but with deep learning, the quality of translations has improved significantly.

Neural Machine Translation (NMT)

Neural Machine Translation (NMT) is a deep learning approach that uses neural networks to translate text. It has become the state-of-the-art method for machine translation.

Key Components of NMT

  • Encoder: Converts the source text into a fixed-length vector.
  • Decoder: Converts the vector into the target language text.
