Hi! Tis quot from wikipedia may provide a path for further research: "Google translate is based on an approach called statistical machine translation, and more specifically, on research by Franz-Josef Och who won the DARPA contest for speed machine translation in 2003. Och is now the head of Google's machine translation department."
The name Fran-Josef Och seems to be from Austria, Bavaria and/or from a person emigrated to the USA. C U! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "General" group.
