TL;DR. Using neural networks to translate entire sentences as a single model.
Technical Definition
Using neural networks to translate entire sentences as a single model.
How it works
Neural Machine Translation (NMT) is a sophisticated approach to machine translation that employs large artificial neural networks. Unlike older methods, NMT models an entire sentence as a single unit, allowing for more fluent and contextually accurate translations. The neural network learns complex relationships between words and sentence structures in different languages.
