Knowledge Required for Avoiding Lexical Errors at Machine Translation
نویسنده
چکیده
This research aims at finding out the causes that led to wrong lexical selections in machine translation (MT) rather than categorizing lexical errors, which has been a main practice in error analysis. By manually examining and analyzing lexical errors outputted by a MT system, it suggests what knowledge would help the system reduce lexical errors. Keywords—Error analysis, causes of errors, machine translation, outputs evaluation.

A Hybrid Machine Translation System Based on a Monotone Decoder
In this paper, a hybrid Machine Translation (MT) system is proposed by combining the result of a rule-based machine translation (RBMT) system with a statistical approach. The RBMT uses a set of linguistic rules for translation, which leads to better translation results in terms of word ordering and syntactic structure. On the other hand, SMT works better in lexical choice. Therefore, in our sys...

متن کاملLinguistic-based Evaluation Criteria to identify Statistical Machine Translation Errors
Machine translation evaluation methods are highly necessary in order to analyze the performance of translation systems. Up to now, the most traditional methods are the use of automatic measures such as BLEU or the quality perception performed by native human evaluations. In order to complement these traditional procedures, the current paper presents a new human evaluation based on the expert kn...
متن کاملThe Correlation of Machine Translation Evaluation Metrics with Human Judgement on Persian Language
Machine Translation Evaluation Metrics (MTEMs) are the central core of Machine Translation (MT) engines as they are developed based on frequent evaluation. Although MTEMs are widespread today, their validity and quality for many languages is still under question. The aim of this research study was to examine the validity and assess the quality of MTEMs from Lexical Similarity set on machine tra...
متن کاملStudy of Syntactic Errors for Deep Parsing at Machine Translation
Syntactic parsing is vital for semantic treatment by many applications related to natural language processing (NLP), because form and content coincide in many cases. However, it has not yet reached the levels of reliable performance. By manually examining and analyzing individual machine translation output errors that involve syntax as well as semantics, this study attempts to discover what is ...
