In statistical machine translation, single-word based models have an important deficiency; they do not take contextual information into account for the translation decision. A poss...
Abstract. German compound words pose special problems to statistical machine translation systems: the occurence of each of the components in the training data is not sufficient for...
Given a number of machine translations of a source segment, the goal of system combination is to produce a new translation that has better quality than all of them. This paper des...
Currently there are several approaches to machine translation (MT) based on different paradigms; e.g., phrasal, hierarchical and syntax-based. These three approaches yield similar...

The state-of-the-art system combination method for machine translation (MT) is the word-based combination using confusion networks. One of the crucial steps in confusion network d...
