Integrating Case Frame into Japanese to Chinese Hierarchical Phrase-based Translation Model

چکیده
This paper presents a novel approach to enhance hierarchical phrase-based (HPB) machine translation systems with case frame (CF).we integrate the Japanese shallow CF into both rule extraction and decoding. All of these rules are then employed to decode new sentences in Japanese with source language case frame. The results of experiments carried out on Japanese-Chinese test sets. It shows that our approach maintains the advantages of HPB translation systems while at the same time naturally incorporates CF constraints. The case frame rules can complement Hiero-style rules. Our approach is especially effective for language pairs with large word order differences, such as Japanese-to-Chinese.

A Reordering Approach for Statistical Machine Translation
This paper presents a Markov based hierarchical reordering scheme for lexical reordering to incorporate into phrase-based statistical machine translation system. The goal is to reorder the words and phrases in source language syntactic structure into their corresponding target language syntactic order for making translation easy. Without reordering during language translation, sentences can onl...
متن کاملHierarchical Phrase-based Machine Translation with Word-based Reordering Model
Hierarchical phrase-based machine translation can capture global reordering with synchronous context-free grammar, but has little ability to evaluate the correctness of word orderings during decoding. We propose a method to integrate word-based reordering model into hierarchical phrasebased machine translation to overcome this weakness. Our approach extends the synchronous context-free grammar ...
متن کاملEffective Use of Discontinuous Phrases for Hierarchical Phrase-based Translation
Hierarchical phrase-based (HPB) models have shown strong capability in generalization and reordering. However, they are heavily dependent on continuous phrases and are difficult for modeling natural linguistic discontinuities directly. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for integrating discontinuous phrases into the Chinese-to-English HPB system. We focus on the extraction method of dis...
متن کاملModeling Syntactic and Semantic Structures in Hierarchical Phrase-based Translation
Incorporating semantic structure into a linguistics-free translation model is challenging, since semantic structures are closely tied to syntax. In this paper, we propose a two-level approach to exploiting predicate-argument structure reordering in a hierarchical phrase-based translation model. First, we introduce linguistically motivated constraints into a hierarchical model, guiding translati...
متن کاملMaximum Entropy Based Phrase Reordering for Hierarchical Phrase-Based Translation
Hierarchical phrase-based (HPB) translation provides a powerful mechanism to capture both short and long distance phrase reorderings. However, the phrase reorderings lack of contextual information in conventional HPB systems. This paper proposes a contextdependent phrase reordering approach that uses the maximum entropy (MaxEnt) model to help the HPB decoder select appropriate reordering patter...
