Abstract
This case study presents a Multilingual e-commerce Project, which principal aim is to create an improved system that translates product titles and descriptions, plus other content in multiple languages. The project consisted of two main phases; a research-intensive solution using state-of-the-art Machine Translation systems and baseline language models for two language pairs, and the development of a Machine Translation system. The features implemented included Quality Estimation, model benchmarking, entity recognizers, and automatic domain detection. mBART model was used to create the system for the specific domain of e-commerce, for luxury items.
