Enhancing Translation Accuracy

Requirements Clarification & Assessment

1. Define the Objective

   • Determine the primary goal: Is it to enhance translation accuracy, reduce latency, improve user experience, or increase user engagement?
   • Identify specific metrics for success (e.g., BLEU score for accuracy, response time for latency).

2. User Demographics and Needs

   • Identify the primary user groups: Travelers, language learners, business professionals, etc.
   • Understand their specific needs and pain points (e.g., accuracy in professional settings, natural conversational flow for learners).

3. Competitive Landscape

   • Evaluate what competitors (e.g., DeepL) are doing better and the features they offer.
   • Identify areas where Google Translate can differentiate itself.

4. Technical Constraints

   • Assess current technical limitations of the Google Translate system.
   • Determine available resources (e.g., data, computational power) for implementing improvements.

5. Stakeholder Alignment

   • Align with stakeholders on the scope and priorities of improvements.
   • Set clear expectations on deliverables and timelines.
