Tree Adjoining Grammars have well-known advantages, but are typically considered too difficult for practical systems. We demonstrate that, when done right, adjoining improves tran...
We propose Bilingual Tree Kernels (BTKs) to capture the structural similarities across a pair of syntactic translational equivalences and apply BTKs to sub-tree alignment along wi...
We describe Akamon, an open source toolkit for tree and forest-based statistical machine translation (Liu et al., 2006; Mi et al., 2008; Mi and Huang, 2008). Akamon implements all...
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...
Abstract. This paper describes an example-based machine translation (EBMT) method based on tree-string correspondence (TSC) and statistical generation. In this method, the translat...
