چکیده

This paper describes the Yandex School of Data Analysis Russian-English system submitted to the ACL 2014 Ninth Workshop on Statistical Machine Translation shared translation task. We start with the system that we developed last year and investigate a few methods that were successful at the previous translation task including unpruned language model, operation sequence model and the new reparameterization of IBM Model 2. Next we propose a {simple yet practical} algorithm to transform Russian sentence into a more easily translatable form before decoding. The algorithm is based on the linguistic intuition of native Russian speakers, also fluent in English.

chrF: character n-gram F-score for automatic MT evaluation

We propose the use of character n-gram F-score for automatic evaluation of machine translation output. Character ngrams have already been used as a part of more complex metrics, but their individual potential has not been investigated yet. We report system-level correlations with human rankings for 6-gram F1-score (CHRF) on the WMT12, WMT13 and WMT14 data as well as segment-level correlation fo...

Supertag Based Pre-ordering in Machine Translation

This paper presents a novel approach to integrate mildly context sensitive grammar in the context of pre-ordering for machine translation. We discuss the linguistic insights available in this grammar formalism and use it to develop a pre-ordering system. We show that mildly context sensitive grammar proves to be beneficial over context free grammar, which facilitates better reordering rules. Fo...
