Most state-of-the-art evaluation measures for machine translation assign high costs to movements of word blocks. In many cases though such movements still result in correct or alm...
Following the recent adoption by the machine translation community of automatic evaluation using the BLEU/NIST scoring process, we conduct an in-depth study of a similar idea for ...
Language modeling is to associate a sequence of words with a priori probability, which is a key part of many natural language applications such as speech recognition and statistic...
In this paper, we identify factors that affect machine translation (MT) of a source query for cross-language information retrieval (CLIR) and empirically evaluate the effect of ps...
