Improving Statistical Machine Translation with Monolingual Collocation
This paper proposes to use monolingual collocations to improve Statistical Machine Translation (SMT). We make use of the collocation probabilities, which are estimated from monoli...

Paraphrase Lattice for Statistical Machine Translation
Lattice decoding in statistical machine translation (SMT) is useful in speech translation and in the translation of German because it can handle input ambiguities such as speech r...

Bayesian Semi-Supervised Chinese Word Segmentation for Statistical Machine Translation
Words in Chinese text are not naturally separated by delimiters, which poses a challenge to standard machine translation (MT) systems. In MT, the widely used approach is to apply ...
