This paper proposes a novel method for phrase-based statistical machine translation by using pivot language. To conduct translation between languages Lf and Le with a small biling...
Minimum Error Rate Training (MERT) is an effective means to estimate the feature function weights of a linear model such that an automated evaluation criterion for measuring syste...
