This paper proposes a novel maximum entropy based rule selection (MERS) model for syntax-based statistical machine translation (SMT). The MERS model combines local contextual info...
The distortion cost function used in Mosesstyle machine translation systems has two flaws. First, it does not estimate the future cost of known required moves, thus increasing sea...

Large-scale discriminative machine translation promises to further the state-of-the-art, but has failed to deliver convincing gains over current heuristic frequency count systems....
A Bloom filter (BF) is a randomised data structure for set membership queries. Its space requirements are significantly below lossless information-theoretic lower bounds but it ...
We use existing tools to automatically build two parallel treebanks from existing parallel corpora. We then show that combining the data extracted from both the treebanks and the ...
