A System for Syntactic Structure Transfer from Malayalam to English
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the design and development of a system for syntactic structure transfer of Malayalam sentences to English. A syntactic structure transfer module is required in machine translation systems using a transfer based approach. The system uses a rule based approach. It makes use of rules of morphology of both Malayalam and English and syntactic structure transfer rules between Malayalam and English sentences. The rules of morphology and sentence syntax are used by the shallow parser in the creation of the parse tree for the source language sentence. The transfer rules are used for generating target structure. The system uses a bilingual dictionary consisting of words in the source and target language along with their
