چکیده

Knowledge-based machine translation ( K B M T ) techniques yield high quabty in domuoH wi th detailed semantic models, l imited vocabulary, and controlled input grammar Scaling up along these dimensions means acquiring large knowledge resources It also means behaving reasonably when definitive knowledge is not yet available This pa per describes how we can fill various K B M T know] edge gap*, often using robust statistical techniques We describe quantitative and qualitative results f rom JAPANGLOSS, a broad-coverage Japanese-

Building A Large Ontology For Machine Translation

This paper describes efforts underway to construct a largescale ontology to support semantic processing in the PANGLOSS knowledge-base machine translation system. Because we axe aiming at broad sem~tntic coverage, we are focusing on automatic and semi-automatic methods of knowledge acquisition. Here we report on algorithms for merging complementary online resources, in particular the LDOCE and ...

Evaluating machine translation for assimilation via a gap-filling task

This paper provides additional observations on the viability of a strategy independently proposed in 2012 and 2013 for evaluation of machine translation (MT) for assimilation purposes. The strategy involves human evaluators, who are asked to restore keywords (to fill gaps) in reference translations. The evaluation method is applied to two language pairs, Basque–Spanish and Tatar–Russian. To red...

Adding Linguistic Knowledge to a Lexical Example-Based Translation System

Example-Based Machine Translation (EBMT) using partial exact matching against a database of translation examples has proven quite successful, but requires a large amount of pre-translated text in order to achieve broad coverage of unrestricted text. By adding linguistically tagged entries to the example base and permitting recursive matches that replace the matched text with the associated tag,...

An Approach to Example-Based Machine Translator using Translation Memory

This paper presents example-based machine translation architecture using translation memory that integrates the use of examples for flexible, idiomatic translations with the use of linguistic rules for broad coverage and grammatical accuracy. In examplebased machine translation (EBMT) approach to machine translation is often characterized by its use of a bilingual corpus with parallel texts as ...

An Object-Oriented Implementation of Machine Translation Systems

In this paper, we describe an implementation of object-oriented knowledge sources and functions for knowledge-based machine translation, where the meanings of sentences are represented by conceptual "objects." While parsing and generation are viewed as mappings between syntactic and conceptual representations, such functions as paraphrasing, abstraction, and information filtering are implemente...
