Hunter MT: A Course for Young Researchers in WMT17
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper documents an undergraduate course at Hunter College, in which one instructor, six undergraduates, and one high school student built 17 machine translation systems in six months from scratch. The team successfully participated in the second Conference on Machine Translation (WMT17) evaluation on the news task in Finnish-English and Latvian-English and on the bio-medical task in French-English, English-French, English-German, English-Romanian, and English-Polish.

Results of the WMT17 Metrics Shared Task
This paper presents the results of the WMT17 Metrics Shared Task. We asked participants of this task to score the outputs of the MT systems involved in the WMT17 news translation task and Neural MT training task. We collected scores of 14 metrics from 8 research groups. In addition to that, we computed scores of 7 standard metrics (BLEU, SentBLEU, NIST, WER, PER, TER and CDER) as baselines. The...
متن کاملThe AFRL-OSU WMT17 Multimodal Translation System: An Image Processing Approach
This paper introduces the AFRL-OSU Multimodal Machine Translation Task 1 system for submission to the Conference on Machine Translation 2017 (WMT17). This is an atypical MT system in that the image is the catalyst for the MT results, and not the textual content.
متن کاملFindings of the 2017 Conference on Machine Translation (WMT17)
This paper presents the results of the WMT17 shared tasks, which included three machine translation (MT) tasks (news, biomedical, and multimodal), two evaluation tasks (metrics and run-time estimation of MT quality), an automatic post-editing task, a neural MT training task, and a bandit learning task.
متن کاملUHH Submission to the WMT17 Metrics Shared Task
In this paper the UHH submission to the WMT17 Metrics Shared Task is presented, which is based on sequence and tree kernel functions applied to the reference and candidate translations. In addition we also explore the effect of applying the kernel functions on the source sentence and a back-translation of the MT output, but also on the pair composed of the candidate translation and a pseudo-ref...
متن کاملBlend: a Novel Combined MT Metric Based on Direct Assessment - CASICT-DCU submission to WMT17 Metrics Task
Existing metrics to evaluate the quality of Machine Translation hypotheses take different perspectives into account. DPMFcomb, a metric combining the merits of a range of metrics, achieved the best performance for evaluation of to-English language pairs in the previous two years of WMT Metrics Shared Tasks. This year, we submit a novel combined metric, Blend, to WMT17 Metrics task. Compared to ...
