Abstract

The RECONTRA translator, a simple connectionist translator between natural languages, has been able to approach several simple MT tasks. In this paper we create a variant of the RECONTRA topology which takes into account what seems to be the natural work of the human brain in the translation process: complete paragraphs or sentences are translated, not individual words. Thus, the RECONTRA translator is modified to present as output several words at the same time. Experimentally, this simple modification has shown an improvement in the translation results.
