The new Personal Translator 2006 is the first PC-based translation system world- wide which, in addition to rule-based translation technology, contains a newly developed component that simulates the thinking process of the human brain according to the principle of neural networks and makes it usable for translation. This is particularly effective in the following functions:

- The automatic subject area recognition function assigns the correct subject areas to a document and makes sure, for example, that instead of the general translation (e.g. board = Brett) a suitable specialist term is used (e.g. Auf- sichtsrat in a business context) without you having to select settings manually.

- The automatic name recognition function identifies proper names of people, companies, products and places and avoids incorrect translation in cases where a proper name also has a general meaning (e.g. in the case of family names such as Stone, Farmer, Fischer etc. or in the case of geographical terms such as Golden, Hof, Essen etc.)
The neural transfer function, for which an international patent has been filed, can also offer a correct translation if the current sentence does not contain an indication of the suitable meaning of a term with several meanings (e.g. He is holding a bill [Rechnung or Geldschein] in his hand. or Mit Schl.sern [locks or castles] kannte er sich gut aus.). In such cases, the neural network also includes preceding and subsequent sentences in the analysis
