android patent

[PILCH Hartmut <phm@a2e.de>]

The android patent URL is a fake.  What is really claimed in  US
6,341,372 is however no less utopian and problem-oriented:

  I claim:

  1. A method for the universal machine translation of arbitrary languages,
  comprising the steps of:

  identifing high-level grammatical constructions of an arbitrary source
  language word stream;

  constructing a grammatical world model of the syntax of the high-level
  grammatical construction arbitrary source language word stream based only on
  epistemic instances of the source language;

  decomposing the arbitrary source language into only its epistemic instances
  and an arbitrary target language into only its epistemic instances, wherein
  the source language epistemic instances semantically correspond to the
  target language epistemic instances;

  translating the epistemic instances of the source language word stream into
  semantically equivalent epistemic instances of the target language with
  substantially no loss in meaning;

  constructing a grammatical world model of the syntax of a target language
  high-level word stream using only the epistemic instances of the target
  language; and

  generating a translated target language word stream;

  wherein each of the epistemic instances comprises a pair of objects of
  transformation in the source language's or the target language's word
  stream, and a transformer of the pair of objects.

The joker who deceived us with the android patent actually said the
truth in a subtle way.
