A good decoding algorithm is critical to the success of any statistical machine translation system. The decoder's job is to find the translation that is most likely according...

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...
Existing evaluation metrics for machine translation lack crucial robustness: their correlations with human quality judgments vary considerably across languages and genres. We beli...
This paper addresses the problem of dynamic model parameter selection for loglinear model based statistical machine translation (SMT) systems. In this work, we propose a principle...
In statistical machine translation, decoding without any reordering constraint is an NP-hard problem. Inversion Transduction Grammars (ITGs) exploit linguistic structure and can w...
