How GNMT Works
Google showed the process for how its new GNMT technique works in one example, which consisted of translating a Chinese sentence to English. The method encodes the Chinese words as vectors, where each vector represents the meaning of all the words read so far.


When the entire sentence is read, the decoder begins, generating one English word at a time. Each vector is given a different ?weight? in the translation process, and the ones that are found to be most relevant are the ones to be decoded.
