And one of the students who took that class, Jacob, he basically took that idea and ran with it and was like, I'm going to make a latticelanguage model. So yeah, that was very much inspired by weighted finite state Machines.Yeah. And then maybe to move to the next application area that you looked into, it's machine translation.
