Coping With Ambiguity in a Large-Scale Machine Translation System

چکیده
In an interlingual knowledge-based machine translation system, ambiguity arises when the source language analyzer produces more than one interlingua expression for a source sentence. This can have a negative impact on translation quality, since a target sentence may be produced from an unintended meaning. In this paper we describe the methods used in the KANT machine translation system to reduce or eliminate ambiguity in a large-scale application domain. We also test these methods on a large corpus of test sentences, in order to illustrate how the different disambiguation methods reduce the average number of parses per sentence.

متن کاملCoping with Ambiguity in Knowledge-based Natural Language Analysis
This paper describes the strategies and techniques used by the English analysis component of the KANT Knowledgebased Machine Translation system to cope with ambiguity. The constraints for elimination of ambiguity are distributed across the various knowledge sources in the analyzer. As a result, efficiency in the analysis component is maintained, and output quality is improved.

متن کاملA Hybrid Machine Translation System Based on a Monotone Decoder
In this paper, a hybrid Machine Translation (MT) system is proposed by combining the result of a rule-based machine translation (RBMT) system with a statistical approach. The RBMT uses a set of linguistic rules for translation, which leads to better translation results in terms of word ordering and syntactic structure. On the other hand, SMT works better in lexical choice. Therefore, in our sys...
متن کاملResolving Structural Transfer Ambiguity in Chinese-to-Korean Machine Translation
We propose a new prototype Chinese-to-Korean machine translation system called TOTAL-CK, a prototype transfer based MT system designed for the large-scale practical domain. TOTAL-CK consists of the components of analysis, transfer, and generation. In this paper, we mainly discuss the transfer issues resulting from stylistic structural differences between Chinese and Korean. The dependency gramm...
