Today, we are super excited to announce the release of neural dictionary, a significant translation quality improvement to our platform. In this blog post, we will explore the neural dictionary feature.<\/span><\/p>\n Neural dictionary is an extension to our <\/span>dynamic dictionary<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>phrase dictionary<\/span><\/a>\u00a0features in Azure AI Translator. Both allow our users to customize the translation output by providing their own translations for specific terms or phrases. Our previous method used verbatim dictionary, which was an exact find-and-replace operation. Neural dictionary improves translation quality for sentences which may include one or more term translations by letting the machine translation model adjust both the term and the context to produce more fluent translation. At the same time, it preserves the high term translation accuracy.\u202f<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The following English-German example demonstrates differences in translation outputs between both methods when a custom terminology translation is requested:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nIntroduction\u202f<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n
