Google Translate applied deep learning technology
to introduce artificial neural network-based
translation service.
http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/09/technology/09translate.html
One email from a Korean fan became
one of the reasons why Sergey Brin
started to develop Google Translate.

Automatic Speech Translation
Evolution of automatic translation technology
Rule base machine translation (RBMT) =>
Statistical machine translation (SMT) =>
Neural machine translation (NMT)
Large artificial neural network predicts likely sequencing
of words, typically modeling entire sentences in a single
integrated model.
