CHUNKY: an example based machine translation system for spoken dialogs
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents an experimental example based machine translation system for spoken German-English dialogs. The system consists of a syntactic analysis, a module for automatic alignment of sentence pairs, a translation module and a generation module. The translation module splits the input sentence into parts and finds the best translations for these parts using the sample corpus and a distance function considering context.

JANUS 93: towards spontaneous speech translation
We present rst results from our eorts toward translation of spontaneously spoken speech. Improvements include increasing coverage, robustness, generality and speed of JANUS, the speech-to-speech translation system of Carnegie Mellon and Karlsruhe University. Recognition and Machine Translation Engine have been upgraded to deal with requirements introduced by spontaneous human to human dialogs. ...
متن کاملJanus: towards Multilingual Spoken Language Translation
In our effort to build spoken language translation systems we have extended our JANUS system to process spontaneous human–human dialogs in a new domain, two people trying to schedule a meeting. Trained on an initial database JANUS-2 is able to translate English and German spoken input in either English, German, Spanish, Japanese or Korean output. To tackle the difficulty of spontaneous human–hu...
متن کاملMobile Speech-to-Speech Translation of Spontaneous Dialogs: An Overview of the Final Verbmobil System
Verbmobil is a speaker-independent and bidirectional speech-to-speech translation system for spontaneous dialogs in mobile situations. It recognizes spoken input, analyses and translates it, and finally utters the translation. The multilingual system handles dialogs in three business-oriented domains, with context-sensitive translation between three languages (German, English, and Japanese). Si...
متن کاملAn Example-based Decoder for Spoken Language Machine Translation
In this paper, we propose an example-based decoder for a statistical machine translation (SMT) system, which is used for spoken language machine translation. In this way, it will help to solve the re-ordering problem and other problems for spoken language MT, such as lots of omissions, idioms etc. Through experiments, we show that this approach obtains improvements over the baseline on a Chines...
متن کاملSandglass: Twin Paraphrasing Spoken Language Translation
This paper proposes a new machine translation design that is the core architecture in an on-going project named Sandglass. The Sandglass system places special emphasis on monolingual processing and is designed to e ectively deal with spoken languages. The system has good portability from modularity provided by a natural language protocol and monolingual processing reinforcement. This paper clar...
