چکیده

The goals of this work are, on the one hand to develop a trilingual corpus suitable for example-based text and speech-input machine translation between English, Spanish and Basque; and on the other hand, to compare the same translation method for under two very different pair of languages: Spanish-Basque and Spanish-English. The stochastic finite-state transducers have been trained from raw bilingual examples. As the experimental results show, they seem to be a good choice for both text and speech-input machine translation.

An Open-Source Shallow-Transfer Machine Translation Engine for the Romance Languages of Spain

We present the current status of development of an open-source shallow-transfer machine translation engine for the Romance languages of Spain (the main ones being Spanish, Catalan and Galician) as part of a larger government-funded project which includes non-Romance languages such as Basque and involving both universities and linguistic technology companies. The machine translation architecture...

A Finite-State Approach to Translate SNOMED CT Terms into Basque Using Medical Prefixes and Suffixes

This paper presents a system that generates Basque equivalents to terms that describe disorders in SNOMED CT. This task has been performed using Finite-State transducers and a medical prefixes and suffixes lexicon. This lexicon is composed of English-Basque translation pairs, and it is used both for the identification of the affixes of the English term and for the translation of them into Basqu...

P − 20 01 Speech - to - Speech Translation Based on Finite - State Transducers

Nowadays, the most successful speech recognition systems are based on stochastic finite-state networks (hidden Markov models and n-grams). Speech translation can be accomplished in a similar way as speech recognition. Stochastic finite-state transducers, which are specific stochastic finitestate networks, have proved very adequate for translation modeling. In this work a speech-to-speech transl...
