Adding multi-language support for Azure AI applications quickly

There is a growing demand for applications which support speech, language identification, translation or transliteration from one language to another. Complex problems such as these can now be solved using advanced APIs that are readily available without having to reinvent the wheel – no machine learning expertise required! This blog starts off with a brief introduction to machine translation and then explores various topics like identifying the language and how to perform translation/transliteration of spoken or typed text using Microsoft's Translator Text API. In addition, we also discuss how translated or transliterated text can be integrated with LIUS. Machine Translation (MT) encompasses the various tasks involved in converting source text from one language to another.
