The parameters of statistical translation models are typically estimated from sentence-aligned parallel corpora. We show that significant improvements in the alignment and transla...
In statistical machine translation, single-word based models have an important deficiency; they do not take contextual information into account for the translation decision. A poss...
In statistical machine translation, the generation of a translation hypothesis is computationally expensive. If arbitrary wordreorderings are permitted, the search problem is NP-h...
We address the problem of extracting bilingual chunk pairs from parallel text to create training sets for statistical machine translation. We formulate the problem in terms of a s...
Extractive summarization techniques cannot generate document summaries shorter than a single sentence, something that is often required. An ideal summarization system would unders...
