We currently translate zh->zt by pivoting through English:
# Current implementaion
zh -> en -> zt
# With zh -> zt model
zh -> zt
I’m not sure how commonly used the zh-zt is but I think it would make sense to have a model for this language pair.
See the pic. Look like kind of chinese → english → chinese(tranditional) result.Is multilanguage translation implement by this way?
And more important,the result is not chinese(tranditional)，both input and output is chinese(simplified).
And, chinese(simplified) → chinese(tranditional) don’t need a middle languge cause there is a one-to-one correspondence between simplified Chinese characters and traditional Chinese characters.
Maybe there is room for optimization. Thank you for your work.
