In this work we present two extensions to the well-known dynamic programming beam search in phrase-based statistical machine translation (SMT), aiming at increased efficiency of ...
We investigate the use of Fisher's exact significance test for pruning the translation table of a hierarchical phrase-based statistical machine translation system. In additio...
In this paper, with a belief that a language model that embraces a larger context provides better prediction ability, we present two extensions to standard n-gram language models ...
We present an extension of phrase-based statistical machine translation models that enables the straight-forward integration of additional annotation at the word-level — may it ...
