Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for use of use of fuzzy-match-based translation suggestions to augment machine translation of input sentences or other texts. A machine translation system may use a model trained to translate a source language input to a target language output based on pseudo-randomly selected translation suggestions in the target language, while at inference time the machine translation system may use translation selections associated with source language samples that have a high degree of similarity to the source language input to be translated. To efficiently use the translation suggestions, they may be encoded in context with the source language input to be translated, and the machine translation system may use the encoded translation suggestions with to generate a translation in the target language.
