We discuss different strategies for smoothing the phrasetable in Statistical MT, and give results over a range of translation settings. We show that any type of smoothing is a bet...
We augment a model of translation based on re-ordering nodes in syntactic trees in order to allow alignments not conforming to the original tree structure, while keeping computati...
Abstract. We propose a lexicalized syntactic reordering framework for crosslanguage word aligning and translating researches. In this framework, we first flatten hierarchical sourc...
