Rapid integration of Parts of Speech information to improve reordering model for English-Farsi Speech to Speech Translation
Integrating Parts of Speech (POS) information to Machine Translation (MT) model usually amounts to significant changes in the MT decoder. We present a method to rapidly integrate...

Minimum Error Rate Training in Statistical Machine Translation
Often, the training procedure for statistical machine translation models is based on maximum likelihood or related criteria. A general problem of this approach is that there is on...

Multi-align: Combining Linguistic and Statistical Techniques to Improve Alignments for Adaptable MT
Abstract. An adaptable statistical or hybrid MT system relies heavily on the quality of word-level alignments of real-world data. Statistical alignment approaches provide a reasona...

A Discriminative Global Training Algorithm for Statistical MT
This paper presents a novel training algorithm for a linearly-scored block sequence translation model. The key component is a new procedure to directly optimize the global scoring...

Machine Translation with a Stochastic Grammatical Channel
We introduce a stochastic grammatical channel model for machine translation, that synthesizes several desirable characteristics of both statistical and grammatical machine transla...
