Untranslated words still constitute a major problem for Statistical Machine Translation (SMT), and current SMT systems are limited by the quantity of parallel training texts. Augm...
Abstract--Until quite recently, extending Phrase-based Statistical Machine Translation (PBSMT) with syntactic knowledge caused system performance to deteriorate. The most recent su...
Factored Statistical Machine Translation extends the Phrase Based SMT model by allowing each word to be a vector of factors. Experiments have shown effectiveness of many factors, ...
