Language translation of text input using an embedded set for images and for multilanguage text strings

Abstract:

A method for receiving a first text in a source language is provided. The method includes associating the first text in the source language with a first vector, selected from a plurality of vectors associated with the source language in an embedded set, and identifying a second vector that is closer to the first vector than a pre-selected threshold. The second vector is associated with a second text in a target language. The method includes associating the first text in the source language with the second text in the target language, wherein the embedded set includes a first image vector for a first image and a second image vector for a second image, and returning the second text in the target language, the second text being a translation of the first text from the source language to the target language. A system configured to perform the above method is also provided.
