Extending Statistical Machine Translation with Discriminative and Trigger-Based Lexicon Models
In this work, we propose two extensions of standard word lexicons in statistical machine translation: A discriminative word lexicon that uses sentence-level source information to ...

Exploiting Parallel Treebanks to Improve Phrase-Based Statistical Machine Translation
We use existing tools to automatically build two parallel treebanks from existing parallel corpora. We then show that combining the data extracted from both the treebanks and the ...

Annealing Techniques For Unsupervised Statistical Language Learning
Exploiting unannotated natural language data is hard largely because unsupervised parameter estimation is hard. We describe deterministic annealing (Rose et al., 1990) as an appea...

Understanding Linguistic Evolution by Visualizing the Emergence of Topographic Mappings
We show how cultural selection for learnability during the process of linguistic evolution can be visualized using a simple iterated learning model. Computational models of linguis...
