Joint Parsing and Alignment with Weakly Synchronized Grammars
Syntactic machine translation systems extract rules from bilingual, word-aligned, syntactically parsed text, but current systems for parsing and word alignment are at best cascade...

A Probability Model to Improve Word Alignment
Word alignment plays a crucial role in statistical machine translation. Word-aligned corpora have been found to be an excellent source of translation-related knowledge. We present...
