| Mozilla Intellego - Machine Language Translation for the Open Web
| Create the foundational code for the Intellego machine translation project. Intellego is an initiative to develop a machine translation engine that utilizes open corpus data, open corpus gathering techniques, and open web services APIs to lower the linguistic accessibility barrier for users and websites and further promote the exploration of freedom of linguistic expression on the web.
This piece of the project will lay the foundational code for Intellego by aiming at the completion of a key milestone: creating a system that will scan the DOM of a site, extract the translatable text nodes, search for source terminology matches from within a bilingual termbase, and return target language terminology within the rendered page. This project will aim to perform these tasks within the Mozilla support sites first. If the student can accomplish the basic scope of the project before the necessary eight weeks, the stretch aim would be to enable the addition of context sensitive retrieval of target terminology.
