English-Japanese Pattern-Based Machine Translation

The conventional English-Japanese pattern-based translation method is as follows [4].
Step 1
Prepare English-Japanese translation patterns and English-Japanese word pairs.
Step 2
Input an English sentence.
Step 3
Search for an English translation pattern that matches the input of Step 2.
Step 4
Output a Japanese translation pattern corresponding to the English translation pattern made in Step 3.
Step 5
Generate a Japanese translation sentence using the English-Japanese word pairs and a Japanese translation pattern in step 4.

Table I shows an example of English-Japanese pattern translation, and Table II shows examples of English-Japanese word pairs.
