Tree based translation models are a compelling means of integrating linguistic information into machine translation. Syntax can inform lexical selection and reordering choices and...
Automatic word alignment is a key step in training statistical machine translation systems. Despite much recent work on word alignment methods, alignment accuracy increases often ...
This paper deals with the treatment of constructed neologisms in a machine translation system. It focuses on a particular issue in Romance languages: relational adjectives and the...
Hierarchical phrase-based models provide a powerful mechanism to capture non-local phrase reorderings for statistical machine translation (SMT). However, many phrase reorderings a...
Synchronous tree substitution grammars are a translation model that is used in syntax-based machine translation. They are investigated in a formal setting and compared to a compet...
