Placement feedback: a concept and method for better min-cut placements
The advent of strong multi-level partitioners has made topdown min-cut placers a favored choice for modern placer implementations. We examine terminal propagation, an important st...

Monolingual Machine Translation for Paraphrase Generation
We apply statistical machine translation (SMT) tools to generate novel paraphrases of input sentences in the same language. The system is trained on large volumes of sentence pair...

Improved Discriminative Bilingual Word Alignment
For many years, statistical machine translation relied on generative models to provide bilingual word alignments. In 2005, several independent efforts showed that discriminative m...

Bayesian Learning of Non-Compositional Phrases with Synchronous Parsing
We combine the strengths of Bayesian modeling and synchronous grammar in unsupervised learning of basic translation phrase pairs. The structured space of a synchronous grammar is ...

A Syntax-based Statistical Translation Model
We present a syntax-based statistical translation model. Our model transforms a source-language parse tree into a target-language string by applying stochastic operations at each ...
