A lot of countries on the world are pursueing this research all the time since the home is long-term. The exploration that translates computer application at the language began since the day that from this century 40 time computer is born in fact. The research of our country machine translation is OK restrospect to 50 time metaphase. This year is machine translation of our country first time 40 years when the test demonstrates successfully. That experiment 40 years ago although scale is not large, but at that time had been world level. The state that such tests can have on the world at that time is can be counted on one's fingers really. Since half century, worldwide the way that considers to ever had walked along a paragraph of music to fold with the machine translation of our country, the backwater that has had 60 time metaphase to be made an appointment with later 10 years or become silent, the reason is endless and same nevertheless. Abroad basically is the machine translation group that an orgnaization that sufferred the United States to ever was organized technically published 1966 unmanned not the influence that the ALPAC of dawn reports, halted the funds support that studies to machine translation in succession. ALPAC reports what basically say is: Through investigation, machine translation rate is slow, accuracy rate is poor, get higher than translating cost artificially much, in the near future or the future that can foreknow, developing economic machine translation system was not counted on. This report later although ever got a lot of serious criticism, think it contains serious bias, but it still considered to cause to machine translation very big damage. Just begin alive bound to anabiosis inside limits and be moved toward with each passing day till machine translation of 70 time metaphase flourishing. Japan is the country that few number did not get worldwide backwater to affect however. The Japan at the beginning of 80 time almost the research that all a major programme of lasting importance calculate aircraft company to have machine translation system and development, if Fuji is connected, day stands, Japan electric, Toshiba, Xia Pu. Japan is world place in the contribution that urges machine translation to research a field accepted. Below its advocacy, meet at summit of the first machine translation was being held in Japanese hakone 1987 (MT Summit) , after deciding, biennially is in by turns inferior, Europe, beauty is held regularly. Established association of Asia-Pacific machine translation in succession again before long, association of European machine translation, association of North America machine translation, and association of international machine translation, still published regularly " machine translation communication " . The 7th peak was held to meet in Singapore this year in September, the last peak that it also is this century is met, its theme is the machine translation " that " receives new century to translate. The current situation that our country has a delegate to make progress to the machine translation that our country introduced on the thematic seminar of " studies and be developed in machine translation of " world each district on invitation, the thematic seminar that still the delegate attended funds to invest on invitation introduced the investment situation that all sorts of our country channel study to machine translation. The author did a problem to be on the academic seminar before the meeting on invitation " English-Chinese / the past of Chinese-English machine translation, mix now future " report.
