Determining Recurrent Sound Correspondences by Inducing Translation Models
I present a novel approach to the determination of recurrent sound correspondences in bilingual wordlists. The idea is to relate correspondences between sounds in wordlists to tra...

First- and Second-Order Expectation Semirings with Applications to Minimum-Risk Training on Translation Forests
Many statistical translation models can be regarded as weighted logical deduction. Under this paradigm, we use weights from the expectation semiring (Eisner, 2002), to compute fir...

Improved Statistical Machine Translation for Resource-Poor Languages Using Related Resource-Rich Languages
We propose a novel language-independent approach for improving statistical machine translation for resource-poor languages by exploiting their similarity to resource-rich ones. Mo...

A Probabilistic Approach to Syntax-based Reordering for Statistical Machine Translation
Inspired by previous preprocessing approaches to SMT, this paper proposes a novel, probabilistic approach to reordering which combines the merits of syntax and phrase-based SMT. G...
