Shake-And-Bake Translation

Shake-And-Bake Machine Translation

A novel approach to Machine Translation (MT), called Shake-and-Bake , is presented, which exploits recent advances iLL Computational Linguistics in terms of tile increased spread of lexicMist unification-based grammar theories. It is argued that it overcomes some difficulties encountered by transfer and interfingual methods. It offers a greater modularity of the monolingual components, which ca...

Using Template-Grammars for Shake & Bake Paraphrasing

In this paper we propose an approach to corpus-based generation in a machine translation framework that is similar to shake & bake (Whitelock, 1992). A bag of words is mapped against an automatically induced TL template grammar and a sentence is generated by recursively applying rules that are extracted from the template grammar. A test version of the template grammar is enriched with further l...

Shake-and-Bake MT and Morphology*

We will address the issue of designing MT systems where the capability to reuse grammars taken off the shelf is maximized, thus restricting the need for application-specific work. Or. to put it in a slightly different way, our proposal is aimed at encouraging the development of pure grammars (i.e. grammars describing languages in the abstract), to be contrasted with those which are extensively ...
