Towards Deeper MT - A Hybrid System for German
نویسندگان
چکیده
The idea to improve MT quality by using deep linguistic and knowledge-driven information has frequently been expressed. If the goal is to use deep information for building an MT system, there are two extreme options: (1) to start from a purely knowledge-driven approach (RBMT) and try to arrive at the same recall found in current SMT systems; (2) to start from an SMT system and try to arrive at higher precision by modifying it so that more knowledge drives the translation process. The system architecture we will describe in this paper starts in the middle of these extreme options. It is a hybrid architecture that we take as a starting point for future experiments and extensions to increase MT quality by more knowledge-driven processing.

Further Experiments with Shallow Hybrid MT Systems
We describe our hybrid machine translation system which has been developed for and used in the WMT10 shared task. We compute translations from a rulebased MT system and combine the resulting translation “templates” with partial phrases from a state-of-the-art phrasebased, statistical MT engine. Phrase substitution is guided by several decision factors, a continuation of previous work within our...
متن کاملDeeper Machine Translation and Evaluation for German
This paper describes a hybrid Machine Translation (MT) system built for translating from English to German in the domain of technical documentation. The system is based on three different MT engines (phrase-based SMT, RBMT, neural) that are joined by a selection mechanism that uses deep linguistic features within a machine learning process. It also presents a detailed source-driven manual error...
متن کاملBuilding a Spanish-German Dictionary for Hybrid MT
This paper describes the development of the Spanish-German dictionary used in our hybrid MT system. The compilation process relies entirely on open source tools and freely available language resources. Our bilingual dictionary of around 33,700 entries may thus be used, distributed and further enhanced as convenient.
