Challenge: Multi-modal translation is an emerging task of the MT community, where visual features of image combine with textual features of parallel source-target text to translate sentences.
Approach: They propose to use convolutional neural net-works and visual geometry to extract image features and attention-based Neural MachineTranslation (NMT) system for translation.
Outcome: The proposed multi-modal translation system improves translation quality and improves the quality of the captions of the images.
