Abstract

A method, a system, and a computer program product for translating a document are disclosed. A document in a source language is received and text snippets are extracted from the same. The text snippets are sent to a first set of remote workers for translation and a second set of remote workers for validation. The words in the validated text snippets are assigned a probability score. The words with the highest probability score are combined to generate the translated document.
