In this paper we address the problem of translating between languages with word order disparity. The idea of augmenting statistical machine translation (SMT) by using a syntax-bas...
Bayesian approaches have been shown to reduce the amount of overfitting that occurs when running the EM algorithm, by placing prior probabilities on the model parameters. We appl...
Parallel corpora are critical resources for machine translation research and development since parallel corpora contain translation equivalences of various granularities. Manual a...
Current system combination methods usually use confusion networks to find consensus translations among different systems. Requiring one-to-one mappings between the words in candid...

We propose a method to obtain subsentential alignments from several languages simultaneously. The method handles several languages at once, and avoids the complexity explosion due...
