CMU Multi-Engine Machine Translation for WMT 2010
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes our submission, cmu-heafield-combo, to the WMT 2010 machine translation system combination task. Using constrained resources, we participated in all nine language pairs, namely translating English to and from Czech, French, German, and Spanish as well as combining English translations from multiple languages. Combination proceeds by aligning all pairs of system outputs then navigating the aligned outputs from left to right where each path is a candidate combination. Candidate combinations are scored by their length, agreement with the underlying systems, and a language model. On tuning data, improvement in BLEU over the best system depends on the language pair and ranges from 0.89% to 5.57% with mean 2.37%.

متن کاملMATREX: The DCU MT System for WMT 2010
This paper describes the DCU machine translation system in the evaluation campaign of the Joint Fifth Workshop on Statistical Machine Translation and Metrics in ACL-2010. We describe the modular design of our multi-engine machine translation (MT) system with particular focus on the components used in this participation. We participated in the English– Spanish and English–Czech translation tasks...
متن کاملThe CMU Machine Translation Systems at WMT 2013: Syntax, Synthetic Translation Options, and Pseudo-References
We describe the CMU systems submitted to the 2013 WMT shared task in machine translation. We participated in three language pairs, French–English, Russian– English, and English–Russian. Our particular innovations include: a labelcoarsening scheme for syntactic tree-totree translation and the use of specialized modules to create “synthetic translation options” that can both generalize beyond wha...
متن کاملThe CMU Machine Translation Systems at WMT 2014
We describe the CMU systems submitted to the 2014 WMT shared translation task. We participated in two language pairs, German–English and Hindi–English. Our innovations include: a label coarsening scheme for syntactic tree-to-tree translation, a host of new discriminative features, several modules to create “synthetic translation options” that can generalize beyond what is directly observed in t...
متن کاملCMU System Combination in WMT 2011
This paper describes our submissions, cmu-heafield-combo, to the ten tracks of the 2011 Workshop on Machine Translation’s system combination task. We show how the combination scheme operates by flexibly aligning system outputs then searching a space constructed from the alignments. Humans judged our combination the best on eight of ten tracks.
