A New String-to-Dependency Machine Translation Algorithm with a Target Dependency Language Model
In this paper, we propose a novel string-todependency algorithm for statistical machine translation. With this new framework, we employ a target dependency language model during d...

Bayesian Unsupervised Word Segmentation with Nested Pitman-Yor Language Modeling
In this paper, we propose a new Bayesian model for fully unsupervised word segmentation and an efficient blocked Gibbs sampler combined with dynamic programming for inference. Our...
