Kansei engine
Explanation:
I've encountered kansei quite a lot and it seems to be considered too culturally embedded to be easily translated. For that reason it is often left as is.

KANSEI Information Processing (KIP) is an emerging research area and industry from Japan (Hashimoto , 1997). The concepts behind KIP are strongly tied to Japanese culture. KANSEI is a Japanese word that does not have a direct counterpart in Western languages, or, however, every attempt to translation captures just some of the aspects of KANSEI.

text analysis engine


Explanation:
There are many sites on text analysis engines. They also tie in with Unicode issues.

Example sentence(s):
  • If custom text analysis engines are associated with the enterprise search system, you can select one to use with a collection. Users can then specify semantic queries when searching the collection, and improve the quality and precision of the search resul
  • Developing a Multilingual Text Analysis Engine - Does Using Unicode Solve All the Issues?
