Improved Models of Distortion Cost for Statistical Machine Translation
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...

Estimation of statistical translation models based on mutual information for ad hoc information retrieval
As a principled approach to capturing semantic relations of words in information retrieval, statistical translation models have been shown to outperform simple document language m...
